Default HID bulbs revisited

Ok, for those that missed it I'm looking for colored HID headlight bulbs. Now as far as I understand, to do this the gas mixture in the bulb would have to be different than normal HID bulbs, right?

Now my thinking is, *someone* has to have tried this. Anyone know where this could be available?

I've searched through Google forever and they all seem to be the regular bluish HID lights.

And to clarify the S4's headlight bulbs are D2S? H4 H7 R2D2? TIA

Color due mostly to salt mixture. Bulbs are D2S.

Default There are "colored" D2S HID bulbs. That is, they do not put a tint on the bulb. It's the...

...mixture inside the bulb.

If you tell me the color you are looking for, then I can help you.

Default Awesome dude...

I'm looking for either a pure yellow or maybe red. How available is either? Thanks for any help you can provide.
