some police might stop you as blue bulbs can be seen as impersonating a emergency vehicle, however me and alot of mates have blue side lights but never been pulled, so will probs depend on the police around you area

ive got them in my car, to be honest you can hardly see the blue sidelight bulbs when the headlights are on aswell anyway, the sidelights are illegal but ive never been pulled over for them had them in a year

Bulbs do not emit a blue in colour light its just a tint on the glass to cancel the yellow light emitted by the filament. You will be fine with them. There are better bulbs out there but not at that price.

i got pulled the other day for (apparently) having tail lights with minimal visibity lol i posted pics of it on the your cars section and tbh youd have to be blind to miss them lol but yeh ive seen plenty of drivers with blue/red side lights but not sure if they are illegal if your unsure check the law itself

Just because the outside is blue it's doesn't always mean that the sidelight is blue. I ahve brought some of these before and they are normal headlight yellow.
