I would just spend the money and get real HIDs, nothing compares...you can a decent set like Mcculloch HID for around $250.

If you get a PIAA set it's gonna run u $50+, plus they always burn out, so u end up getting another set for the one bulb, ur then out $100 already...

if you do this mod, then you should get the light output that you wanting. I did this and it worked great! I see alot better on the road with these! I was a little iffy about it cause i was looking for a little more blueish tint on these bulbs, which they do give off a slight shade of blue but mostly bright crisp white color!

Sylvania SilverStars are the $h!t they are noticably whiter than OEM bulbs while driving, but not blue like some HID, plus they're like $40/pair at Wal-Mart (9006 for the low beams and 9005 for the highs)

Don't do any of that poser bull$hit, get HIR bulbs, they're made by Toshiba and they're the best ish since sliced bread, or a real HID retrofit... http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQ...rQ5fheadlights

I bought them for my night-time roadtrip to Miami- worked above and beyond my expectations. Also 9005 bulbs in the 9006 housing worked well for me in my Integra, lasted forever (never burnt out 2+ years) until I sold it.
