Default HID Kit Substitute(Glare), Anything Good for Halogen Replacement?

As title says, I don't have the Factory Xenons, and I am really tired of the color of the halogens...

Is there any brand or certain bulbs that I can purchase to replace these??

thnx

Thanks for the responses everyone... I will go ahead and take a look into those silverstar ultras tonight...

Also for the people that changed their halogens, did you upgrade your fogs? If so to what?

Default fogs

i would say hoen if you had xenon
check out silverstar ultra for your fogs too.
temp. rating (kelvin) will match ... should look good.

Default Re: fogs

I cant find those..

So I am thinking of purchasing hoens for the high and low beams. and hoens for the fogs also. they will all be the xenonmatch version.

Any opinions?

Also I will be changing the DRLs with silver crhome bulbs from autolumination.

Default Re: fogs

good call going hoen all around.

be careful on the DRLs... autoilluminations (as do most aftermarket) run hot, so i wouldn't have DRLs on all times. i would grab an extra pair too. i've gone through a set this winter.

since you're doing a switch over, take a look at hoen's license plate and city light bulbs. rounds out the look.

good luck
