Headlights !

Headlights !
Guys,
I have 95 WRX Import and the headlights are about as much use as a candle on the bonnett !
Will an upgraded bulb improve things ?
I have seen these

Will they be an improvement ?

Dunno but I used the fancy uprated output ones from Halfords, I think they were their own brand, and surprisingly enough, they DID actually make a serious difference. Definitely worth having - like you, I found my original Scoob headlights were shockingly bad.

there's a group buy in the 'for sale' section for some proper HID's, i think they're about 125quid...........
I've just bought a set of PIAA's and the difference is immense, i'd say i could see double the distance at night now, they did cost 60quid but worth it......
get the best you can afford, i guarantee it'll be cheaper than hittin a tree!

i bought the osram silver star bulbs from www.powerbulbs.co.uk supposed to be 50% brighter! they made a big difference to the standard bulbs i had incouldnt believe the difference! think they were £15.95 with a free set of phillips sidelight bulbs included and free delivery so they dont break the bank like the piaa ones even though id like to try them

yea i have some silverstars here as well
although the 80/100w`s were my weapon of choice, they dont last very long
i bought some "plasma blue hyper white" jobbies from ebay, which look pretty much identical to the ring sports blue ones i had fitted before
i think there rated at normal wattage but they claim to give out 100/110w or something. they are pretty much on par with the ring sports blue i had fitted before, and i got them for £6 deliverd the pair
