Difference between Philips DiamondVision Plus and Crystal Vision?

[Brock]

Thanks for your info. I still have another 2 years to go before inspection.

 

Not greater than 4000k huh? That would mean that even CrystalVision is out since it's rated 4300k.

[Garlic]

Yep.

You might want to drop LTA an email @ http://talk2lta.lta.gov.sg/AskLTAContentCo....CreateFeedback to confirm.

 

If I'm not wrong, BlueVision is LTA approved.

Diamond Vision is more towards bluish white while the other is more of a yellowish color...anyway my fren gt a gd deal from McWell when they were having their annivesary or sumtink la...30% off everything on the shelf...he grabbed the diamond vision for $55+ ....cheap! compared to retail price of $80+....

[Brock]

Thanks! Now awaiting their reply.

[Brock]

Ok. I've got the official reply from LTA. DiamondVision Ultimate Blue 5000k is non-compliant thus considered an illegal mod. I'll probably go for either BlueVision or VisionPlus then. Thanks to all for your feedback.

yeap as i said b4

> 4000k is not legal for lta...dun waste money and get in trouble

DV sux actually very fast blow

go for VP if u want brightness or BV if u prefer closer to white

[Furrynadz]

[Xiao_low]

[Brock]

My DV is working since the day I installed it. Over a year and it's still working fine.

[Gary84]

Diamond is more towards bluish white...while the crystal vision has very strong yellow lights..

[Gary84]

bro, since u want very white and bright de...y not try PIAA Plasma H-290E 7500K.....i bought it in Sep2004....now still werking well...the $165.45 price tag realli pays off well...

[Brock]

Gary,

 

Thanks for the info. I've decided to remain LTA compliant. I'll just stick to my existing DV and before inspection, change the bulbs back to stock then switch back again.

[Vblaster_w211]

Crystal Vision is LTA compliant. Philips have the letter of approval. Don't worry about the 4300K spec.

Actually, they will still let you pass if nothing else on your car fails.

 

My last car had DV as the low beam and passed. My present car have HID low beams, which I installed at outside workshop, and DV high beams, still passed.

 

I asked the mechanic and he said 19 out of 20 cars will fail the headlight test. Very common. What they catch is HID conversions without projector lens. Mine is original OEM for my car (the whole assembly including the high beam and signal, not just the bulb), so maybe that's why it's ok.

 

I would say just go for it of you like DV's. Afterall, swapping back the original is a 5-min DIY job.

Thanks for your sharing of experiences. Informative I must say. I think stock HID would surely pass.

[Brock]

Really (read:surprised)? That's informative to us users. Then why put a cap at 4000k? Strange...

Anybody know the current price for Crystal Vision and Diamond Vision?

 

Thanks!
