yes it is universal....different observers will determine different
speeds of the incoming light from the same light source. This makes
light agrees with the normal physics that speed is of anything is
dependent on the motion of the source or the detector.

Wrong I use the new wavelength to determine the source of the incoming
light as described by you and from that I find the universal
wavelength of that light.
