9004 and H3's Super White HELP!!!!!
 
Ok Guys help me out here! I am tring to find the two
lights that match each other 9004's and H3's. I would
like to know the brands and a price if you have them.
I sell Street Glow products but I don't want to buy them if they don't match!! I have heard that it is hard to find H3's
to macth the light that the 9004's put out??!! I just want something
that looks like the white color not the dead OEM look.

I bought H3 and 9004 from the same company and it doesn't match. I think it's because of the thick lenses that the fog light are equipped with. I'll be interested to see if anyone has a matching setup.

No luck here!
 
I bought a pair of blue-tinted 9004's and have tried two different H3's, even from the same manufacturer and they do not match. I can get them bright white, but not blue-tinted. I think these things are so cheaply made and mass produced that they are not quality inspected.

You may never find an exact match since the headlight bulbs and fog light bulbs put out a different wattage.

The match is as follows:

PIAA H3's I think there called Extreams or Platnum series
And Blue Diamond 9004 Halogen bulbs. Notice I said "HALOGEN" there is no "ZENON" super white bulb that will match, there all to blue.

You can get the Blue Diamond bulbs at JC Whitney.

I've gone through about 5 sets of bulbs looking for the perfect macth and belive I have found it. Check my sig for the other bulbs I have up front, they all match perfectly.

There are Piaa xtremes and piaa platium super whites.
They are two different types of bulbs

The xtremes are whiter and brighter than the SW. Compared to the piaa sw 9004 headlights the xtremes look slightly blue, but only compared to the headlights.
I love the look of my h-3 xtreme fogs, but I've had trouble finding matching headlights.

I have the perfect match for you...
 
I've tried several brands such as APC, Naxos, PIAA Superwhites, etc. If you want the xenon bluish-white look in your headlights and foglights to match, get "Max Super White" bulbs. They are both offered in regular wattage and have a nice simluated HID look and will match up with Polarg clearance and sidemarker bulbs perfectly. I have them in my headlights and fogs and so does my girl in her '00 Solara headlights and fogs. For details, go to www.kmax21.com. I hope this helps.

I have the H3 Extream fogs, the match is the Diamond Blue 80/100 Watt Halogen bulb. Try them, I'm telling you they look hot. Nice white light that matches the fogs exactly. There available at JC Whitney on line.
