ok, i've seen this on a few civics lately and im curious if anybody knows where to find these. im looking for what i guess are bulbs. i know they light up blue tinted at night but, even in the daytime if you look into the housing of the headlight, there's a blue pigmentation. i asked the local auto store guys and they said they didnt know cuz the lights they sold dont do that. is it just the blue bulb reflecting against the silver or what? any names,links,etc. would be helpful :)

I used to be quite into those things, and I have experience with a handful of different kinds. All they are is a blue tinted bulb, and it's probably reflecting off of the inner housing.
