Blue Headlights
I was thinking of replacing my stock headlight bulbs with the high intensity blue ones from Ecklers (PN:45009). However, I dont know how they'd look because I dont have any pictures. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could send me pics of a c5 with the blue bulbs (pop-up lights only [as opposed to le mans style] please 
)

Do NOT buy just the blue bulbs. Colored bulbs have lousy visibility at night. Although, the Silvania Silverstars are an improvement of over the stock halogen bulbs.
If you really want the Blue look, I would get a complete HID conversion kit for around $300.

That's what I was afraid of...thanks, maybe later down the road I will go blue, but for now I'm happy. Unless for $80 I could make a huge improvement It isn't worth my money
