  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

new 2014 genesis 3.8 owner. love the car so far, just some small things i dislike and hope people have ideas to help change.

the headlights - i love the hyperwhite angel hair/eye, whatever you want to call it. i hate that the rest of the lights are that yellowish, including the fog lights. has anyone changed them to hyperwhite to match? what model headlight bulb is it, what brand did everyone go with?. same question for fog lights. as long as we are on the subject, what bulb type is in the directonial, and side mirror. yes i want to white it all out so it matches, yes i realize there would still be a orange plate on the side of the headlight. i attached a pic of the current headlight

thanks for your help.

You will need to buy Tech Package or V8 model headlights if you want this.

Also matching the foglights is a terrible idea. You don't want bright white lights for that purpose.

Apologies that I cannot help with the bulb sizes.
 
For the standard 3.8, High Beams are H7, Fogs are H8, front side markers are 168 and mirror side markers are LED.
I have the Tech package which have HID Low Beams (D1S) I change mine to Osram CBI. The difference is huge.
 
thanks for the response.

the tech package is the touchscreen, lexicon system, etc...yea i was not given that option, this was a close out, so i just have all the basics, kinda disappointed in that but what can you do. i would love the speaker system and touch screen.

were the bulbs difficult to change?

The tech package is the control knob on the consol and the 17 speaker Lexicon system.
