Re-reccomending 9005 upgrade

[gloryaccordy]

My lights are beautiful...I was driving my friend's mistresses' 318Ti and he was racing around in my car...I never realized how bright they were head on. On the road they aren't too bad, maybe 1/2 a step down in ultimate purple-whiteness from Silverstars, and only $10 cheaper. They're called 'Lazer Blue'...I'll see if I can get a picture of the box. In any case I was just rerecommending the swap again, as I didn't realize how nice my lights look, esp. compared to the doodoo brown lights they came with. I'll def. post pics...

Anyone else got pics of their 9005 lights/recommendations? I might be looking into either some "ultrawhite" 100W APC 9005s or some 85W Piaas.

i personally am using 9005 120w nokya bulbs, there artic white n they give a good hid look alike output.

[ill_menace]

do you kno tho if the high wattage bulb output will melt the reflector on the 4th gen?

check the headlight fuses first, second you might want to adjust the aim of the headlights by using the adjustment screws facing a wall making sure theyre nice and even.

the first time i did my conversion i did that too. Just make sure you don't make them go much higher or you will be getting flashed a lot

all i can say your welcome to go high wattage, its not THAT much brighter.. its a bit brighter, nothing like HID.. but you need to get a high wattage relay harness otherwise you will melt your wires.. i dont believe the high wattage will melt the headlamps, theyre glass.. but they will YELLOW the reflector over time alot faster than standards do.. so its up to you just my input after thinking it all over a bit.
