Hey,
I have a 1999 acura 3.0 cl and my headlights are ridiculously weak.
when I use them, it's almost as if I have no headlights on, and the high beams look like normal lights to me.

I just recently bought it in June, so I was wondering if this is with everyone's cars.

If I replace them will it be brighter?
Is there any way to install fog lights onto the car as well?

Thanks!

 

there is OEM foglights or universal ones, OEM are pretty impossible to find, and universal ones tend to look like crap IMO

i had the same problem with the headlights, i could barely see the light on the road when i had them on, that's why i switched to HID's and they're much better, and not really that expensive

 

U could have a parasitic draw somewhere in your circuit. U have to check the voltage at your headlight. I think it should be 12v, if its lower, something is drawing voltage somewhere.

 

I've always said our lights suck. They're only bearable with HIDs.

 

Get some silverstar ultras or an hid kit

 

i have apexocone 6,000k hid's i highly suggest getting some. and it makes your car look that much better, i still constantlly get compliments.

 

silverstars or HIDs.

 

Another thing that would be beneficial is to add a set of fogs. It really makes a difference at night in the rain.

 

yeah, i'll have to look into those hids.
and i really want fogs on my car. i'm used to driving cars that had them, and this is really a change for me.
thanks.

 

my fogs are nice, they light up a good chunk of the road.. but it doesnt make up for the lack of forward projection

 

I hated the light output from the stock headlights, and replacing the OEM bulbs with Silverstars were marginally better...but they sucked because they would burn out within a year, and then I'd have to replace again....reliability-wise they blow

I tried another brand (Litech) which had better/bright outputs but would also burn-out the same as the Silverstars....

Now I'm happy I didn't go the route that everyone else went with those various HID-kits, but did the HIR to 9006 bulb mods which turned out great!

I definitely get near HID output but without glaring any oncoming traffic and best thing is, I don't need to worry about any ballast burning out
