I am getting the rear clears for the 2K. What do you guys prefer for the bulb to use, a regular red bulb or a Polarg hyper white bulb? Would the hyper white bulb draw more attention from law enforcement officials than I would like? ;-) Are the Polarg worth the extra $6 they guy wants for them?

Any and all opinions are appreciated.

I got the Piaa HID's, but they weren't the color I was looking for. Jane bought the Extreme Whites and to my suprise they were bluer than the HID's. So I traded her and all is well.

To answer your question, yes. It does draw attention. I had the Raybrig bulbs there, but moved them and am using them as the step lights. If you don't want color, I recommend the Raybrigs (superwhite).

http://www.autodynamic.com. Click on euro lighting -> bumper lenses for Nissan.

These are the clear rear markers he's talking about.

Not sure who makes them, but they were MIC (made in Taiwan). Probably imported, but that's a guess. No fronts yet... but we're all waiting for them (at least I am).

What were they thinking when they made the Rears? if they made the rears why couldn't they make the fronts at the same time? that crap don't make any sence.. and $40.. man EVERYTHING FOR A DOLLER, THE AMOUNT OF PLASTIC USED ON THESE LIGHTS. I'm VENTED NOW

clarification

it's miT... not MiC... hahah j/p. i think it's export only, but if they sold them here it might be around 10 bux. i suggest ppl shoudl just make them thmselves outa plexy glass. for the fronts, becuase you can make it thinner and it'll be euro clear.

another pokemon fan.

Bulb Issue

Finally got the damn foglights replaced , but was wonderin if u all know instead of usin the 55W H3 and get 80w H3 would tat work or does it just burn out faster ??? Cuz rt now i got the so called ion blues from autodynamic and it is brighter than the stock but not as blue as i thought it would be, any other suggestions for good foglight bulbs. I like PIAA but its damn friggen expensive and heard its not worth the price.
