Headlight Bulbs?
as you know i have an 01 civic ex..as of right now i dunt like the headlight bulbs because of the yellowish light output..therefore i want some halogen lightbulbs..i would like to know what will i need to now when buying these lights? i have seen some bulbs with like 4000k or whatever? what do i need?
4,500 k H4 bulbs are gonna give you a White beam
5,000-6500 are gonna have more blueish tint to the beam
8,000-10 i guess will have BLUE light and above 10k will be like purple light.

MTecs are great on a clear night... On a rainy/foggy night, OEM would be better.
White = Crap in Rain
Yellow = Best In Rain
I even have to admit when its raining BAD, I wish I had some Bright yellow fogs.

Those are 194 mini bulbs. Can get the hyper white ones, but it's gonna look blue during the day. Polargs are good. In fact I've got a set lying around somewhere. I just unplugged mine cause I only wanted amber and the headlights showing.

Polarg is one of the best though...
