These are pretty cool. Brighter than stock, nice blue look when off, very white look when on. Matches the HID low beams! I'll take a pic of both stock and the Solaris when I get my digicam.

Speaking of one stock and one Solaris, how do you get out the dribver side bulb? The passenger side I coudl reach but theres a bunch of crap on the drivers side. It was raining so I didn't want to mess with it - I just wanted to see how the Solaris looked.

I like them! Are they worth $80? Probably not. But its just money right?

Now if I could just rig it so I could put the Solaris bulbs in my blinkers...

I heard those Solaris bulbs are pretty sweet, but they come at a high price. Even pricier than Piaa.
I think that you might need to remove the air filter box to get to the driver side headlight socket.

Nate

I have a SRI so theres no air filter box... its like the windshield wiper fluid tank I have to move I think. I didn't look at it too closely. Anyone done it before?

stevebo

Have you got a source for these bulbs? I would liek to get a set.

Guest

I think the tank just slides up and out of the way.

Nate

Thanks LiTLleton, I'll try that!

This image is really a pretty accurate comparison between the Solaris and the stock high beams:

BTW, note that these are "for off road use only". Whatever that means.
