Sup guys,
Just wondering for all you people with HID light bulbs, what brand are you using, and how much do you like them. I had a pair of xenon-white Street Glow, but recently one of them burnt out i guess. I loved the Street Glow, but i don't know where else to get them because the place i got before ran out of them. Thanks in advance for responding.

for sure
imitation adds up to the cost because they keep blowing
might as well save up for real ones

Pictures realyy won't do it justice at all. But here are a couple of some other member's b4 and after pics. (stock vs x-treme white)

I have PIAA x-treme white low beam, side markers, parking lights, turn signals and plate lights (lol) - I think I'm a PIAA whore. I have had them installed only since early January. They get compliments all the time. The lows are a bit more blue than the pic (but really are mostly white). I would have to say that the sidemarkers are slightly more blue especially up close but the low beams match pretty well nonetheless. I had someone drive by me in my car so I could see and everything looked great. If you want a bulb that is more blue (has the look of the 4500 K+ HID's) then gow with the Plasma PIAA's. The only bad thing about these is that I've heard u sacrifice quite a bit of visability - especially in rain. The PIAA xtreme whites are a good balance between visibilty (much better than Stock IMO) and appearance. The main thing is that they are stock wattage (a must) - only thing better, IMO, are HID's. I just couldn't spend that much on headlights - maybe down the road :)

i have them in the DRLs, sidemarkers, and licence plate lights.. i'm just waiting for the weather to clear up.. then i really wanan get some HID immitations..
i would go with the plasma's.. but, like u said.. it mite be too blue?? i dunno what to do now.... cuz i really wanted something slightly more blue than white.. the exact same as extreme white in the sidemarker would be perfect...
