nokya arctic white is bluest in my opinion, without going HID.

our cars take 9003, HB2 or H4 (they are the same bulb). please "read the f****** manual"

yes, projectors bolt right in.

looks like multiple questions here:
1) there is no 'best brand'...its all a matter of opinion
2) our cars take an H4 bulb
3) yes, the projectors will bolt right up (but projectors take an H1 bulb)
so if your going to get some new projectors for the ride, dont buy upgraded H4s...instead, buy upgraded H1s

Depends what projectors he has TYC, angels? take H1... The pankcake kind take H3s lol

If u do decide to get a 9000k bulb, i suggest getting foglights if u dont have them already, you wont be able to see anything, esp if they are in projectors

Sorry I meant Waffle type:

U can see the pattern...Looks like a waffle

If you have OEM headlights H1s will not fit because u need H4's

As far as I know, the Sylvania Silverstars are the closest to HID and most blue. Probably highest quality. PIAA makes some good ones, but they run a lot of money. I ended up going with Bi-Xenon HIDs but was looking into just better Halogens before I made the plunge. Hope this helps.

Well - as for nice blue bulbs, i have ones made by Eurolite, and as for blue, there not bad, but they don't light the ground up worth ****. So - i tryed some different brand, sold at Canadian Tire - 'Cool Blue', they are nice and white, and you can actually see what your about to hit. Not bad i'd say. Much much brighter than stock.
