9004 lights burning the connector
Hey you guys i have a problem... I need some advice on which front light bulbs would be a good buy because i got some cheap 9004 blue lights from around town. The bad thing is they seem to be burning the light connectors plastic housing. and now its all screwed up. Can any of you tell me which lights are awesome light bluish that are affordable and dont burn the connectors? Thanks!

Yeah I had to learn the hardway myself. I got mine off of ebay. Also make sure you wire everything correctly after you get them becuase if you dont your highbeam indicator will stay on or worst those sockets will burn out too. Dont ask me how I know.

Here are a couple mail-order links for the GE and Phillips bulbs. One of the sites also carries the EU-spec, non-tinted Silverstars - which are superior to our WalMart blue S/Stars...

Only bulbs ever used were stock, PIAA Xtreme White and Sylvania SS.

I don't recommend any halogen lights. The 9004 design sucks. I'm going to get HID's soon.

I've had the 9007 Nokya Arctic White (over-wattage) bulbs with upgraded harness for a year and the bulbs are still running strong. No melted sockets either. This is by-far the longest lasting over-wattage bulb I've ever had. It outlasted two PIAA Extreme Whites, those only lasted a few months and they burned out. Upgrading your harness does a lot for the bulbs.
