Also i am ordering a bunch of stuff from http://www.autodynamic.com, has anyone ever had problems with them?? good shipping? one more quick question when on autodynamic i need to find polarg superwhite bulbs for my rear turn signals cause i am ordering the clear rears also from there, so i need some bulbs can someone tell me which fitment i need??

solaris...

I've ran solaris 9004 and H3's before...the 9004's are overwattage but work fine on my 99 I30 stock harness, it's very white bright compared to the Piaa superwhite. The H3 solaris burned out...they are overwattaged...stay away from those, although they were bright before they burned...go with Piaa Super Plasma H3's they're not as bright but have a nice color that will match the Solaris 9004

Solaris bulbs sucks, my friend ordered one for his Acura

and it sucked big time. It looked nice from outside but visibily dropped big time.

PIAA SW have much better visibility. Even though they say Solaris supposed to be brighter than PIAA SW.
