If you want a blueish tint then get the Piaa Super Plasma's.. IMO they suck that why i'm replacing my H3/H4 with Hids

PS: Easy on the caps....

Look blue, but project white. Inexpensive, and it won't burn out your harness.

I'm using Philips BlueVisions for my headlights. Stock wattage, brighter than stock, $26 a pair.

Mr. Rose

Sylvania COOL BLUES work great for the headlamp bulb, $15.00 ea. and give off the perfect tint of white.
The color is between the stock yellow halogen and the rice boy NOKYA blue bulbs.

As for the H3 fog lights, I'd get Sylvania "All Season", very bright GOLD/yellow. Sylvania does not make the COOL BLUE in an H3. If you want to match the fogs to the headlamps then I suggest Philips Blue Vision.
Here is where I ordered from...

I would go Eurolite as well. There must be some reason they are so famed in the aftermarker world.

Do you have a 3rd, 4th or 5th gen?

If you have a fourth gen look at my recent comparison:

5th gen max......I'm not sure why my sig pic & writing dont come up?

If you're willing to pay for them, the Raybrig White Thunder H4 does a nice job with the blue tint. In my sig you can see the blue tint with the lights off.

Any blue glass bulb is going to have a blue tint when lights are off.....but I'm instrested in a good blue tint when lights are ON at night....

do they match polarg corner lights very well? where can i get them?

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

This is very true and that's the opposite reason I bought my Nokyas for. I wanted something that looks very blue when they're off, and projects white on the road (I don't care what color they are when they're on). If you look in my sig you can see that with them off they are VERY blue. They are less blue when they're on, but they project pure white on the road. I love them, and for $30 shipped I reccomend them to just about everyone.

I didn't catch that last post. I don't know if they match the PolarG corners. But you can get them for under $30 shipped from Auto Direct Save. And they have fasy shipping - I got them in like 2 days or so.

wait a minute...i just saw the site. they are 100/80 watts? won't that burn out my stock wiring harness???

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

I've had mine for 3 months and absolutley no problems. This is a VERY common brand and TONS of hondaboys have them, so you should have no risk. eMail Them and ask for yourself like I did. Here's what I got back:
"THESE LIGHTS ARE 100% Safe. They do not burn anything out, thats just a myth. I use them, along with all my family and friends; they are a must have."
-Cyrus

Soon2BMaxed

well 30 bucks isn't much so i guess i'll try them, btw that reply sounds like a sales pitch to me

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

What did you expect from a salesperson? And the fact that they're $30 and so few people have them is the same reason I bought them, and now I'm extremely happy with them. Do a search and see what other people have to say too, don't take just my word.
-Cyrus

Soon2BMaxed

ok, one more ? before i get them... PLEASE tell me they look better than stock and NOT yellow!

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

Since you have the exact same assembly I have I can GUARANTEE (sp?) you they are not at all yellow. Bright blue while off, light blue when on, CRYSTAL WHITE when on. But please to a search first and see what other people think.

Yes, well they do a pretty nice job without going so far as to alert the cops of your illegal bulbs...a very good HID-like look to them.

Soon2BMaxed

i read the thread but the links must be old cuz they don't work u have any pics? i will search....

MichaelAE

The first number is merely a "what they look like" number and it really isn't ever accurate. The White Thunders are 120/80's...suggesting that they give the appearance of being 120's even though they draw 80 or 85 or whatever.

In reality all these bulbs give off LESS light than the stock bulbs and only appear white because the blue/purple tint filters the yellow out of the spectrum since they are close to complementary colors on the wheel. The white they give off is similar to the white light of a hotter bulb...or the blue light of an even hotter bulb.

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

I don't have any pics. But I'm sure you read what other people said about his lights. They loved them, and keep in mind he paid $15 more than you will. Just search for "Naxos xenon" and you'll get plenty of results.
-Cyrus

Soon2BMaxed

really? i always thought the first number was for the wattage of the highbeams and the 2nd one was for lowbeams

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

It is. (But let's keep that between you and me...)

Soon2BMaxed

i was gonna say..... anyways, i think i will try the bulbs, though i did read a post about them burning somone's harness, but i really want the look. and if they melt the harness, then i will just go and buy the upgraded harness anyways.

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

Don't count on it, they won't. And any brand/type of bulb will burn out if you touch it with your hands . Its a good bulb, escpecially for the price, trust me.
-Cyrus

MichaelAE

iTrader: (1)

Okay, let me clarify. You know how there is a big number and a small number...like:

135/125
55/50

The REAL power rating is 55/50. The 135/125 is the bs rating that the company claims the bulbs look like...I have posted a photo of a Raybrig Metal box to explain...you can't see the true power rating very well...printed in white. Sorry for the confusion.

MichaelAE

iTrader: (1)

Sorry...explained the right concept with the wrong numbers.

Vyrus

iTrader: (4)

The Naxos are different. They really ARE 100/80 (?). Youe bulbs are made to seem like that, but not ours. And by big number we mean 100, and little number 80. Naxos doesn't make extra numbers. But its cool man, I gotcha.
-Cyrus

MichaelAE

iTrader: (1)

Well, I hope you're right about it not burning the harnesses. I've read some threads which have had some damage related to exceeding the 55 watt stock. I'm not going to argue with you on your experience with them though.
