use nokya bulbs. dnt last very long but they are blue like a lexus gs 400 light and they dnt melt anything. i have bought 2 sets in 1 yr but i pay 20 and i only replace one light at a time so 2 me its worth it. 1 bulb has been in 4 over a year.

i use eurolite H4's for my headlights
and they look bluish white
pay only like $20 canadian for them... and they last about a year or so
to me that's a good deal, cuz i think they look waay better than the $100 PIAA's
(although i do have IPF's for the foglights H3C)

I have Nokya bulbs, and they are used, they have been in my car, and show no signs of getting "weaker" or "burning out". I just am going to get Hyper White to match the rest of my lights...

I will sell both of them for like $25 and I have the boxes still, im not sure what Watt they are tho

thanks
brandon

i still like the PIAA's better, granted they're a little more expensive but they last sooooo much longer.

if you want more wattage than looks, then i say go and upgrade the housing. if you just want to buy the bulbs for looks as in the color and don't give a damn about how bright it is, then just buy some cheap ass imported lights.

I think it also depends on the brand name bulb. I had 100 watt bulbs for a few months and they never melted the plugs. I got annoyed of them though because they don't last so I got a Xenon kit.
