Alas you’ve picked a poor example who have mis-quoted the regulations. Static blue lamps are not prohibited to the front. A static blue lamp does not resemble a WARNING beacon or SPECIAL warning beacon (Reg 16).
Then you can fit some over 4200 K bulbs in your headlights and you’ll be legal so long as they stay on permanently and don’t flash.
Anyway… I’ve just worked out why we have a driver shortage…
You’re all on here all day everyday knowing best about every single topic except driving trucks…
blue lights this, Carryfast that, the lad only asked a simple question about lights and it turns into 3 pages of utter madness
just whack some lights on it and plead temporary insanity if they pull you over for it. simple

I think you may have missed the point of fora like this [emoji6]
Read the regs - headlights are a specific requirement, surprisingly the post has been about additional lamps which has some extra quirks
‘If’ that’s true then there is a problem with the legislation which is ‘intended’ to avoid confusion regarding emergency vehicles on call.It’s obvious that any type of blue light could cause that.
The 4200 K rule is only there to stop headlights turning to a blue colour that’s all.What would be the point if it’s ok to have blue lights so long as not flashing.
