"Yellow" headlights

Had to pick up replacement headlight (dipped) bulbs today in Halfords. Grabbed the first set but only copped after fitting that they're yellow. Looked at the box and it says "all weather."

I had them on mine, they were grand. Got rid of them when one blew as they're a bit 'look at me'
