Damn Ludacris, I'd take those back if you still have the receipt for them.

I bought some Xtravisions today. They look decent, and I got them for $17. I used to have the APC 100/80W Blue bulbs. These looked pretty good IMO, and are still as bright as ever, but I needed something new. I also figured it probably wasn't the best to be running such a high wattage through there.

The Xtravisions look better than stock (Stock = :barf: ) but I don't think they're going to do the trick for me. They still have a slight yellowish glare to them, and I was really hoping for a bright white. Oh well, for $17 you can't really go wrong. Maybe I'll get some PIAA's when I get some money. Anyone that has these, are they worth the money you paid for them?

I switched to PIAA Xtreme Whites for both heads and fogs. IMO, they are worth the money. Interesting fact, my PIAA X fogs are brighter than the heads.

When people say that rain vision doesn't matter to them, they aren't fully appreciating how bad the SS's are. I have had them for over 6 mos. now. Color looks great. Dry vision is about equal to stock. Rain vision = I can't even tell they're on most of the time!!! I'm NOT exaggerating! Next time, I'll probably buy the Phillips bulbs.

The sh*tty thing is, when I first got these, I was so happy, I bought a pair for my wife's car too. Oh, well. At least it sounds like they won't last much longer.
