No its not normal if there amber they would look amber lol that's straight yellow so send them back. I have amber on my car and they look nothing like that.

BackinBlackSS/RS · 08-11-2011, 08:16 PM

yes, that is yellow.

InvaderMoose · 08-11-2011, 08:26 PM

Well why would they be like that? Someone said it's because I was using a 9volt source to light them, but that makes no sense to why theyd be yellow.

Sir Nuke · 08-11-2011, 08:36 PM

well why don't plug them in to a 12 volt source......

Well. I dont exactly have one, and I really dont understand how the voltage can affect the color of an LED.

The Stig · 08-11-2011, 08:37 PM

Hmm it might be that they need the full 12v to get the "amber" color, but again that's just a guess. I have no idea why they are yellow though.

martinezj454545 · 08-11-2011, 08:39 PM

well you should try to get some source of 12v and see if they change back and if they dont then you could be the first one with yellow halos lol i know some one would buy them from you if no one makes them lol limited edition

Do you not own a car with a battery?

liquidsmoke · 08-11-2011, 08:45 PM

They are yellow because they are yellow.
Send them back and get amber.

You said you bought some before so you should know they are wrong.

I'm just double checking. It's been a year since I put these on, I didn't understand why I'd get yellow halos when they dont even make them.

Jeez, it's like you guys are getting offended by this or something.

InvaderMoose · 08-11-2011, 08:54 PM

Hooked them up to my car battery. Still yellow. I guess I got a bad batch or something..
