i am interested in purchasing a pair of super white bulbs for my low beams. i've heard alot about bulbs and some that burn out faster and burn harnesses, etc. i'm interested in buying a set that's going to last me and money is not an issue (no i'm not doing HID conversion :-). please give me a list of websites that I can visit and use to purchase a set of these for my 2000 Accord V6 EX. Thanks guys!

 

"search 9005 conversion" in google. i fit a pair of high beam bulbs into my low beam sockets and got great results. i used sylvania silver star bulbs and got a really pure white out of them for half the cost of PIAA's.




then i did the HID kit ... and those make any bulb look like poo

 

what they said... those bulbs rock! they are $22 a piece at most auto parts stores.

 

oops, they were on sale when I bought them...

 

Waste of money..

 

if money aint a thang i'd get the CATz lighting system.

 

hehe.... ballasts for halogen bulbs for only $100 less than real hids. what a waste of money

ALL "superwhite" bulbs are strictly just for looks (just making sure u kno). they ALL have reduced ouput, when compared to oem bulbs, b/c of the colored coating on them.

i like the look of them, so i just went with a pair of high watt hyper industries. the streets are pretty well lit where i live. but if im out carving some back roads at night, i just flick on my highbeams

 

Trust me on this. I've tried PIAA, Razo, Hiper, Eurolite, etc. They may look nice but if you think about it... how long will they last? I FINALLY switched to HID because I got a good deal on it and even if those phony bulbs may "look" HID, the output is no where near the real thing. Let's look at it this way: hyperwhites last about a year(give or take) and you may spend up to $75 on PIAAs. That's $375 for five years. I spent $395 on HID and should last me the life of my car... think about it.

HIDs: superior light output, nice color, bragging rights

P.S.- you said money wasn't an issue

 

heh, well where can I get a HID kit for that price. Any kits i've seen run close to $1,000.

 

you haven't looked hard enuf.

I got my HID's for $350 philips ballast/osram bulbs. ( ithink phillips bulbs look better btw...more white)

Search ebay. or if you want a warranty go to www.hids4less.com all the Bimmer kids swear by that place and autolampsonline.com ( i think) you'll pay closer to $500, but you will never change them again or think about regular bulbs again. If you wanna really splurge do a search for a guy named see-fu. he is god.

please do things right the first time and you won't regret it.
