Default Best headlight bulbs?

I really want to get rid of that yellow tint from the stock bulbs and get pure white/light blue tint bulbs but really don't want to go with HID.

I know there are the Sylvania line but really dont want to be replacing the bulbs every 6-12 months. What are your suggestions?

How come you don't want to go with HIDs? they provide way better vision at night

Once you go hid. You never go back. Some bulbs are just as expensive as hids. But it also depends on how much you're willing to spend. But im pretty sure most of the replies you're gonna get are "switch to hids!", or something along those lines

Default bulbs

i didn't want to mess with hiding ballasts and wires so i went with some regular bulbs. i got some Nokya bulbs and they have been great so far. only had them in for about 6 months though so i can't compare them to the one year expiration on the sylvanias. with the projector headlights on our tC's the bulbs look great.

hang around for a while, you'll change your mind (like me)
