Weakas$ roadlamps

Damn, those things are freakin yellow.
I've been looking into a couple of bulbs available.
People say the Polarg M6 and PIAA 19169 are best for changing into the roadlamps.
But I heard some people saying the M6 is too bluish with a hint of pink.
So I was looking at the PIAA bulb, the 19169 is only 12v, so basically besides being white, it's really not a big difference from the stock roadlamps.
Then theres the 18w PIAA 19224, I'm thinking about using these, but it's a different bulb type? Would it fit into the housing properly?
Too many bulbs, confused...
Can anyone tell me anything about these bulbs?

I have the PIAA 19224 and many other's have the M6 with no complaints. Those are about the only options you have that will fit in the road lamp housing and still match the HID pretty closely.

After several years the 19224 and M6 are still about the only game in town unless you want to completely replace the road lamps and put in real fog lights...

Has n e one used both PIAA 19224 and M-6 ??
which one is brighter?
Whiter?
Bluer?
or very similar???
Cuz i am using M6 now and pretty happy with em...just that after a while they start to turn dimmer and after the heat deformation of the bulb, i have to always break the bulb to pull it out of the housing and socket!

BUt still think its worth the hassle! HEH


and 1 time i saw a silver cls with hella bright roadlamps
dont know wut bulb he's running
but looks damn brighter than m6
not sure if he changed to real fogs....i doubt it tho
