   they'll say the usuall " you do realise these bulbs are ilegal to have on display and are not suitable for road use " even tho they will fit them to your headlights if you ask them!!

   The yellow bulbs are the ones that supposedly make it easier to see in bad weather, they come in a green box and the bulb looks like it's multi-coloured, sort of oily.

   try ebay i just got at set of head light bulbs for £2.50, instead of paying the usual £20.00 from halfrauds. my mate run yellow bulbs and he got a ticket for having them, however he had covered his bonnet in porn so not too sure if that was the reason why...?

    the only two colours allowed to be projected out of a headlight(apart from new xenon) are white and yellow apparently as said above they make it easier to see in bad/poor conditions
