I use Sylvania bulbs now and they are good but the plastic lens are so ratty that they cant be touched up anymore.

      PS. I have done the sanding of the plastic for the last 3 years. Its time for new. Waste of my time after the second time.
      I got Helix Ecodes which I really like in terms of the actual lighting, but the quality is poor. I would look at something like Hella Ecodes - you will be impressed.

      I don't know how well made the FK ecode projector lights are, I'd assume not great.

        get hella ecodes they are amazing. they have the proper cutoff, and paired with the proper harnesses and relays, then high wattage bulbs you can turn night into day, literally.


        stock NA headlights are such garbage. why do we get such reject technology over here

            I run the siverstar or whatever they are called and am very happy with them, much brighter than the stock.

                      The prices varied. The 9007 were 44. the h7 were 63 the 9004 were 75. So they completly varied depending on the model. Silverstars were 33 each.

                          you better make sure you wire in relays or you will fry your ground side.
                          80% of people don't need higher wattage just aim the headlights correctly
                          and have a good lens.(Industrial Pollution if you guys haven't noticed is eating away our polished surfaces)

                            Well i installed my Philip night guide bulbs and they are awesome!

                            They are super bright, have a slight yellow along the edges to reduce glare, and there is something in them that makes road signs and the paint on the road reflect like crazy! Very happy with them. Thanks for the susggestion and I give them a thumbs up if any one else is interested.

                              I had GE nighthawks before, they were really good.



                              Now I just installed Helix Projectors and 6000k HID's and I love 'em.
