how can i get rid of the "yellow" light look? i am thinking of getting something brighter and clearer... and to spend as less money as possible

do i just change the bulbs? some of those bulbs are like 75$ PIAA something...

what can i do?

Thanks

To answer your first question... The lights won't be brighter unless you run more voltage or buy high powered bulds. If you get colored bulbs with the same wattage, they are dimmer per say, but have a higher temperature so they appear brighter. The only high powered bulbs I'd recommend is a 9007 conversion bulb. Look under 4th gen FAQ. I did this on my 3rd gen and couldnt' be happier.

To answer your second question... change your light bulbs

I appreciate your response!

how do i run more voltage? how much would it cost? and the 9007 bulbs, do i need anything else in order to replace those?

I am a total noob when it comes to electrical stuff...

I will also look under the 4th gen FAQ

any more ideas??

4th gen FAQ's how-to's ect... will give you steps and what you will need. It has the answer to all of your questions about lighting

higher power bulbs work good if you directly connect it to the battery with new relays, bigger wire and new high temp. bulb connections. anything higher then about 75-80 watts low beam will probably burn out factory wiring harnesses. Silver stars are about $40 and are not yellow, somewhat white 4200k color temp. high watt 90-100 xenon filled fake hid is about 5200k and hid conversion is less power 30-40 watt but can be 6000k-15000k $300+

Convert to 9007. If you drive at night you will love that mod forever. It is one of the best small mods a 4th gen can do.

is this better than h4's like in the 5th gen?

H4's have a superior beam pattern, mainly because the 5th gen reflectors are designed for them.

JSutter, have you done the 9007 conversion to recommend not doing it?

im am the one who wrote the write up. i was just screwing around, since i had my name changed hehehe I love my 9007's

H4 is much better than 9007 so 5th gens are fine with their stock bulbs. If you want more light just change the harness.

ya, I didn't catch that until I went back to your thread
