ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

          I have 9006 Silverstar Ultra's as well.
          Best lighting (IMO) you can get without going HID.
          But, they'll cost you about $50.


          You can also convert 9005 bulbs to fit in your low beam for added light.
          Here's the DIY:

                  Just out of curiosity, why not get the HID's? Its all plug and play plus you can get a HID kit pretty damn cheap these days.

                      Can be done.
                      Glare can be reduced by aiming the headlights more towards the ground than with halogen lights.

                        kind of defeats the purpose of improving visibility, no? if you did that, the beam would be down on the road close to the car and you would be lighting your way with the glare...
                        not trying to make an issue, just that i HATE when oncoming cars have HID's and blind me... okay, that's my $0.02, i will leave the thread now!

                          Like Josh said, it can be done, doing a proper aiming and adjustments you can cut down glare and still have much higher visibility, if you want to minimize the glare and not have to aim as low, black house your headlights making sure to paint the bottom of the housing. that keeps the glare from shooting up and forces the light forward and down.

                          Honestly, cb's have probably one of the better reflectors to do an pnp HID setup, i'm not saying its the best, because if it were our cb's would have come with em stock. just saying.

                            Yeah I feel what you're saying. But wit the HID's they are so much brighter than normal bulbs that when you aim them down a bit you are still getting way more visibility then with halogens.
