The overwattage ones will be a bit brighter, but you should get a headlight harness with relays to run them safely.

no they suck. they give you the blue tint, which some people like. they don't light up the road as well as stock, they suck ass in the rain, and my passenger side burned out after a month, so i went back to stock. i would not recommend these.

Why not just get some quality overwattage bulbs and a harness from a place like suvlights.com? It might not be the riced-out look that you want, but they'll work a lot better.

they pulled too much power over the stock bulbs, so they burnt out.

yeap, mine did too...but my previous car that had them did fine and a friend has them on his 99 HX for years and they are doing fine...must be something with the ep or they suck suck and suck some more now.

Don't get the nokyas.

If you weren't going to listen to the advice of others, why'd you bother posting a question?

I have had mine on for over two years no problems at all. I have the artic white, which have the blue tint to them. They have a blue color because they are a 4100k light output. If you want a white color get something that has 5000k light output. I know rayburg makes them and I think xenon does too. These type of lights will always look duller than stock, you only get the color from the bulb not the actully brightness like you would from HID.

well i just wanted to get some feedback if these bulbs were good or not mang. and it seems that some people are satisfied with these bulbs...

and that's why i said "ill check them out" meaning im gonna check how much they cost before i buy them. if its a decent price, ill buy it. if not, then screw it. and if i do buy them and they do burn out after a couple months...then oh well? didnt spend too much on it anyway :tongue:

does the blue tint show? cuz i was looking toward the arctic purple ones...cuz i want that "purple HID"-look to it. does it lean more toward the clear or more to the blue side?

Brah, Don't get them. Get PIAA if you want to spend the money. On a budget, Polarg bulbs are ok. Check them out. I've used both of these since '96.

BTW: Where you live at in EWa Beach. I grew up there.
