I was going to replace my high beams with piaa 9005's, but then I saw that there are generic brands of the same thing for a lot cheaper. The piaa's are $70, generics are about $10. I searched around a little and the only complaint I could find with generics is that they don't last as long...but if I can buy 7 for the price of one set of piaas, then I can deal with swapping out bulbs a little more often.

Is the light out of the piaas really going to be any better than the generics?

 

go with the no name brands, i had piaa, they look the same as regular lights, no real difference at all, if i could go back i wouldnt spend the extra $$

 

nice...thanks for the info...10 buck bulbs it is.

 

I wonder if they will last as long?

 

at 6.95 vs. 64.95...as long as they last a reasonably long time I'll take the 60 extra bucks.

put it toward my supercharger fund.

 

i got no names....nokya to be exact. i paid 20.00 and they are fine... i never really use my brights anyway....

 

me either...actually I can't even remember the last time I used my brights, Phoenix is the city of perpetual light.

 

a good brand is hiper industries. the bulbs last for a long time and the price is reasonable. about 20 bucks for high beams. i don' t know about the 6 dollar ones.

 

sylvania silverstars are great and they are $20 each

 

nokya and eurolite are very good for the price


piaa is not worth it in anyway

 

nokyas 21 shipped on e bay.

 

The off brand may not be DOT approved. The PIAA'a are expensive cause they are DOT approved for legal road use in all 50 States. I have the PIAA's.

 

I use Eaglites I got them from www.midnightmoose.com. I had the highs for close to 7 months still brighter than ever...

 

I second the Hyper Industries lights. Match the HIDs perfectly. I think I paid $14.00 for them. I brought two sets cause I wasn't sure about quality, but so far they're great.
