Rep Power: 0 ?? Head light bulb question ??
I am not going to clear my headlights. I was thinking about getting some H4 superwhites. Would it make a difference if I left the stock parking and turn signals, or could I actually see an improvement by changing them as well?

Rep Power: 0 You won't get more light out of them if you switch, if that's what you're asking, but if you change them to a hyperwhite-style bulb, it'll look a lot cleaner, especially with the headlights being hyper-white. Just my opinion ..

The parking and headlight will obviously look hyper white, the signals will look amber, but it will be brighter.... just a guess.

Rep Power: 0 the bulbs don't cost that much so I suppose the best way is for you to do the swap and render your own opinion. I swapped the headlights (MTEC H4 60/55s) and feel the lights look cool enuff without screwing with all other bulbs.

Rep Power: 0 You should go ahead and change those. When I cleared my headlights, I went ahead and purchased the eurolite H4 xenon bulbs, and the other two corner bulbs which are eurolite xenon bulbs as well. They look really nice, but what I like best about them is when your car is just sitting in the sun, the super white xenon bulbs, being blue on the outside, give off a nice blue reflection and make the front of your car look great. Those who have done it probably know what im talking about.

Rep Power: 0 Hey about Bama, aparently you have not watched them much...they always play to their level of competition. Also whoever watched the North Texas game knows the SEC is in trouble when Bama's D rolls into town.

Rep Power: 0 if u switch ur headlights - i think it looks better to have ur parking light changed too (the parking lights have no orange lens in front of them). I think it looks good to match rather than have 3 diff colors (superwhite, kinda white, and orange).
As for your turn signals - dont bother changing them. since they are behind the orange lens you wont notice a difference if you change bulbs.

Rep Power: 0 The only problem with putting hyper-whites into both your parking lights and your headlights is you fry your wiring harnesses. This happened to me. I had to order a wire harness upgrade kit...$60 and then I switched to PIAA's. Althought they don't look as cool, not as blue, they definately are bright. It was a HUGE pain in the *** but it was definately worth it for the clean look of the lights.
