Rep Power: 0 Upgrade Headlight & interior bulbs?
Hello all..... Long time civic owner....New member and first time post!
I recently purchased a 2007 Civic LX 1.8 Coupe Manual.... I'm in the process of fixing her up and adding some upgrades.
I'd like to upgrade the stock Sylvania High Beams and Low Beams (9005 NB3 & 9006 HB4).
I don't need anything to crazy..... Just something a little bit brighter.......Ideally bright white..... Is there something you guys would recommend that would last a LONG time.... I've read that the inner reflectors on the OEM headlights are not designed to work with the newer LED bulbs so I'm assuming Halogen is the way to go..... I just need something easy without having to worry about frying the wires, making custom mods etc....
I'd also like to upgrade the interior dome light bulbs and license plate bulbs.....Would LED be a good option? If so which is the best without breaking the bank?
Thanks

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

I picked up some LED replacements for the interior lights on Amazon. Was $5.99 for a 6 pack. Twice as bright, and they have a nice color to the light produced. 6000k temp, and produce 600 lumens per bulb.

Thanks! Do you happen to know what brand it was? There’s pages and pages full of interior lights.... Just want to get a good set.
