hey guys and gals

I saw a set of "hiper white" light bulbs made by farenheit, at a shop the other day. Does anyone have any experience with these bulbs? Are they worth the money ($29.99/set)? Please let me know what you all think

There are currently over 6 million brands of "hyper white" bulbs on the market today, all pretty much the same unless you get into the well known brands, i will say that the darker that "tint" on them the more blue the light will be, so buy accordingly, but be careful about local laws, and make sure you dont buy ones that are over-watted, keep it stock wattage unless you wanna replace the headlight wairing harness after about a month

they will range anywhere in price from $25-$80 so it looks like a decent deal

yea in short time that will melt the socket, i have some APC's but i bought them awhile ago and they are "overwatted" so i have burnt out many a sockets, see when i bought them APC did not make stock wattage bullbs, now they do and i highly recomend them.

give it time, its very gradual, one will start to go out, you can get it to go back on by jiggling it but this will only work for about a month until its really fried, i suggest the APC wiring harness
