I had Nokya headlights and fogs on my Grand Prix and loved em. Then I changed out the housing on the foglights and put in some Blazertech foglights. Way brighter than the Nokya foglights, and they looked cooler IMO. The Nokya headlights actually exploded after about 3.5 yrs, then I replaced them w/ Silverstars(from a friend) and they were really nice. I now have Silverstar headlights and corner lights on my Ram and love em. The corner lights have a purplish-orangish hue to them when off, looks really cool. I wanna do the fog lights soon, cuz it sucks havin a yellow look to the fogs.

Does anyone know if the foglight housing is metal or plastic??? I had plastic stock one's on my GTP and the bulbs melted into the plastic after a while.

SilverStars are nice and all but they are only rated to last 1 year (sometimes less).

I have another question. On the headlights do you only replace 1 bulb per side ? I see theres two but assume the second one is a blinker bulb. Let me know. I ordered them off Ebay on Friday and received them yesterday. Hot Damn that was quick.

Question for you guys using the Nokya bulbs. I see they have "heavy-duty" wiring harnesses available for them. Did you have any problems with the stock headlight wiring on the truck? Or did you install the heavier wire? Thanks
