Well my low beam on one of the PIAA finally blew. It was a sad day. But they have been of great use. Anywho time to get some new bulbs and I want something bright and white........but I cant afford HID'S right now. So in your experience..which bulb do you like best that is readily available. Not something I will have to order online and wait 5 days for it to get here. Thanks.

Which bulbs blow after 2 months? What are PIAA? I have my factory bulbs in still (96 Max) but figure when they burn out I'll get something nice and white.

I upgraded to silverstars because i don't have money for HIDS. They are decent but expensive. Dam full coverage insurance. Maybe in a couple months when I get my tax check. Nick
