this is what i use and recommend to people... https://www.streetglow.com/cgi-local...=/page=hid.htmjuts don't get them off of ebay, they arn't well taken care of and burn out quickly, go to a audio shop around town they should have them too

+1 on the streetglow. I have them and there bright as hell. I also have streetscene fog lights.they came with my bumper. and they out power my highbeams I get flashed all the time. and when I flash back, they shut theres off pretty quick

Ya you can, they make bulbs for our foglights and headlights, i use silverstar all around, as long as your foglights are in good condition they will be white also, not that yellow crap. My foglights are sun burned and i need to replace them, but they still are brighter then the stock ones i had in there...

My headlights and turn signal bulbs are silverstar
I'm looking to do my rear lights when I get new headlight bulbs
(after I put my foglights in)

for some reason i've never been happy with the amount my headlights light up the road compared to other cars. i've put bright whites in and it helped a little but nothing compared to some. Are HID's the brightest? anybody else have some ideas as to which bulbs to buy? thanks
I used aircraft landing lights for high beams in the old 4 light system.
They worked great they would light up the reflective decals on a squad car 3 to 4 miles away (well out of radar range).
They were good for a-holes that wouldn't dim their brights also.
Drawback you had put heavyer wiring and relay in, they would meltdown a headlight switch. (60amp draw)
