The cheapest place I found PIAA's is at Options Auto Salon. I just placed an order for H4 PIAA Xtreme white headlight bulbs for $49.99 a pair and Xtreme white 168 bulbs to replace the parking lamps for $9.95 a pair. PIAA Super Plasmas H4s are $57.50 a pair and Super Plasma parking lamps are $9.95 a pair. My local speed shop wanted $99.00 for a pair of Super Plasma H4s (Can you say RIPOFF?).

GO HID if you get the $, it's the real deal.

Yup, if you guys want an HID look, then the best way to get it is true HID. More expensive initial investment, but you'll probably never have to replace any of the components. Unlike buying 40/60/90 dollar halogen bulbs every few months. I'd say after 3 years of replacing HID wannabe halogens, you could have paid for true HID to begin with.

But, I think the best halogen(non HID) H4's out there are CATZ Galaxy White bulbs. Thats what I had before I put my real HIDs in. They both have the same color, but the HIDs have a beam that reaches farther and wider.
