You guys haven't heard of green HIDs?

There's like pink ones too :p

In "Hello Kitty" housings, one would expect...

not even mauve? :(

Mauve is just magenta, with an attitude!!!

You'll notice, going with a strictly literally reading, it doesn't say the headlights MUST DISPLAY white light, only that they must BE CAPABLE of displaying white. So technically, a color-tinted cover over them wouldn't contravene this particular section, since the headlamps themselves are still perfectly capable of displaying white...

Then you come back to this. I'm sure green covers do not meet any federal standard..there is also the section that prohibits any covers etc.

^I know all that, just pointing out that you have to be careful what regs you quote sometimes - taken on their own, they can be easily misinterpreted!

You mean somebody might take something out of context? Nooooo, really?

So i have a question. My old retrofit i did had some MAD blue in the cut off line. It was blue-ish, aqua/purple. Is that considered illegal? It still had 4100K bulbs in there. I wish my bimmer had a nice blue cut off, its all yellow and ugly :(

^^ So could that be considered illegal? In reality it defines the cut off so the glare could be reduced, but the light is incredibly white!

To answer your questions...go back to my previous postings...
.Headlamps

4.05 (1) A motor vehicle must be equipped with either one or 2 headlamps mounted on each side of the front of the vehicle and capable of displaying white light.

then the one above about using only approved equipment. If the light setup meets

"(2) A vehicle on a highway must be equipped with lamps equivalent to those provided by the original manufacturer in accordance with the requirements that applied under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act (Canada), or a predecessor to that Act, at the time of vehicle manufacture."

then you will be OK. From what you have told us and shown us, it does not.
