![]() As far as lighting is concerned when you don't want to do an expensive ballast/HID upgrade, your best bet is definitly GE Nighthawk, or Sylvania Silverstar Ultra headlights. They are a lot better than stock bulbs for sure. You may also want to look at the whole headlight housing to make sure that its not yellowing or hazing. Some headlight lenses/housings tend to do this over time. Canadian tire also sells a polishing kit for these issues as well. I think its called headlight restore.

![]() Please don't put hid bulbs into headlights without projectors. It blinds everyone else on the road. Just get silver star halogen bulbs

![]() lol no worries no plans on going HID, I am looking into the sylania or GE, which ever is going to be the best long term I will go with, also yes the lamps are a bit yellow but only externally, I have some headlamp polish, so I will be doing this as well

![]() I used to run Silverstars but had to go back to regular lamps because everyone kept flashing their high beams at me when I would drive at night. Apparently there is such thing as being too bright. I tried lowering the focal points but it didn't matter, they were aimed correctly, just "too dang bright" apparently.
