Rep Power: 0   |  Headlamp advice please I have HyperWhite bulbs in my head lamps now (halogen bulbs, 97 Z24) and while they were bright when I bought them they have dimmed since.... so much that Ive gone back to the stock Sylvania bulbs. I bought them because they thow a "white" light instead of the stock "yellowish" light... kind of like H.I.D. So since I have to replace them does anyone have any suggestions on which ones to get? I want as white and bright as possible. I was looking at these....

Car: 00' Subaru Forester GT LFS Status:  Rep Power: 28    | I've used the PIAA ones before on my subaru and a new one 7500k PIAA one and it was quite bright... only had them for 3 months now so I'm not sure if they dim.... but I suggest you to get an original HID kit... much more effective

Car: '01 Sebring Coupe Rep Power: 0  | i've found the sylvania silverstars work pretty well.. cheaper than coverting to a HID kit.. depends on how bright you want it to be.. i got the silverstars in my jeep.. and gonna get a set for my sebring shortly. the difference between stock halogen and them were very noticable. |

Rep Power: 0 | This all started awhile ago when my cousin was going on vacation with his family and didnt have enough room in his 3 series... so we traded. After spending a week with HID, going back to halogen was a bummer. I would put HID in that car in a sec but nobody makes a HID kit for it. One company makes a HID kit for the 2000+ years but that would involve a headlamp and hood conversion since they are a bit taller and not as long. |

Rep Power: 25  | You might want to look at this site: www.hoen-usa.com Specifically, their xenonmatch Vi Plus, it says it's optimized for projector housings, but about a week ago I had checked the site and it one other on there, that said suitable for reflector or projector housings. That one was in their Vi series, dunno what happened to it...
