Default so.....anyone here actually use "super" white lights in their highbeams?

reason i ask is because i want to know if you can see the blueish hue of the bulb in the lens housing at all during the day when they are off.

also, do they throw out as much light as the stockers? or should i not worry about that becasue they aren't blue enough to decrease the amount of light output per wattage?

i gonna KRaUt it out and pretendZ like I gots duece-xenons! :-)

Default Is it possible to get dual-xenons?

I dont like my high beams on my twisty-road night drives - my roomate has a Saab Vector and it has bi-xenons. Wish I did too!

Default anything is possible, but i don't thinkt here is a ready made kit out there...

you could run higher wattage bulbs in there that will spread more light around....not sure if the wiring is up to it though.....though it should be fine if you don't have them on for too too long...

Default just install hid's into the high beams.

if you don't use your high beams to "flash" people, then go for it. i never saw the point in "flashing" my high beams. noone in ny actually pays attention to that sorta thing anyways.
