it is noticeably brighter yellow but it doesnt seem that bright.
and people said the bulb suppose to be bigger than the stock one which is why it is brighter, but i compared and the bulbs are exactly same size
I got the PIAA #19173 H-133

Here are some picture taken with my phone
driver side = with yellow bulb, passanger side = with reg. pepboys bulb

 

For the yellows, the 19173 is the right one. And yes, they are the same size as the stock bulb. I have these and a pair of the super white PIAA 19224 which are bigger than the stock bulb and much brighter. I personally like the yellow more, just wish it was as bright as the white bulb.

 

From what I keep hearing about the bulbs with the higher wattage, everyone says that it will melt the Clear Plastic lense, or was it the Black Plastic housing. If its the glass thatsxmelting, could someone near a glass shop check out a price for the GLASS lense. that would solve alot of problems with the melting plastic

 

yes for the yellow that's right, i have same piaa bulbs in mine, lol looks nice

also, i had them for 3 months, no sign of melting yet.... i guess cuz it was super cold here...

 

yep, those are the ion yellow bulbs
i recently switched those into my road lamps as my 2nd set of 19224's broke


the color was different than i was expecting though. it's more of a piss-yellow color than amber

 

Hi Ironsurfer!
Could you show a picture of the whole front of the car with one original bulb and one new, but with headlights blocked off? I think this would better show the real difference between the two. Thanks!
