5000 k LED FOG/DRL

Hey guys i recently installed my led H1's here is the link:

5K WHITE 3W LED DRL/FOG BULBS H1 | 1 PAIR.

I didn't even notice at first but one of them has a yellow tone to it, as well i noticed that when i plugged in the bulb connection it was kind of loose so i just gently popped it back into the housing for one of them and the other i used pliers and clamped it shut this is the one that is fine. Any insight?

Thanks in advance its also a 2008 g37s.

Call VLEDs. They may have mistakenly given you one with a lower kelvin rating OR you may have a defective one. Their customer service is really good, they'd probably just send you out another one to replace the bad one.

I have some other Fog lights for other cars that have the big yellowish (not turned on) LED. I have noticed that sometimes I see that yellow tint in the reflectors when the LED is on, even though the light itself is white. But if a side by side they are different you might have a bulb issue. VEL is pretty good customer service, I'm sure they will exchange it.

BTW .... would love to see a picture of them in the car, turned on.

Sure ill take the picture later today, and thanks for the help guys. What is weird when i get close up to the bulb the color somewhat looks the same and in the reflector as you were saying turns up yellow. That's not even the weirdest part the one that is good is a little off not sitting 100% in the housing, like the two notches are a little uneven.

Anyway ill be back later on today with pics
