Rep Power: 296 Hyper whites in TYC?
Anyone who has changed the bulbs that came with them to some hyper white one, did you change the little peanut one also? When I had my OEM headlights, I changed the parking light (peanut one) to a hyper white light, and it got all fogged up. Will this happen with the TYC's. Reason I'm asking is b/c if I change my lowbeams to a hyper white, I'd want to change the little peanut one also so that it will match. Any info would be helpful.

Rep Power: 277 i think the "peanut bulb" is size number 194 i could find blue and red ones but when i got the blue one it turned green after awhile i took em out and changed it back to the stock bulb ALSO before changing any bulb always try not to touch the glass part of it and remember to wipe it with some rubbing alcohol or else it will burn out due to the oil from ur hands

Rep Power: 364 If you have TYC's its most like ly not the bulbs but in fact the assembly itself.. I've heard most TYC's have fogging tendencies.
I am currently in the process of resealing both of mine..

Rep Power: 0 if you are going with a 194 bulb... get PIAA bulbs. They cost like 18 dollars for the set but they are very bright. I have them on my civic and my brother has them on his GTI. They don't turn green and they match hyper whites perfectly.
