new piaa xtreme white 9004's

Does anyone have the PIAA xtreme white 9004?? I've read good things about the PIAA xtreme h3's, and wanted to know if anyone has checked the 9004's out.

here's the site i found em.

http://www.xtremewhite.com/act_home...cfm?search=9004

if these PIAA 9004s look good, then the following set up might look good:

PIAA xtreme white 9004s ($99)
PIAA xtreme white h3's ($79)
PIAA xtreme white cornering clearance light (1157) ($20)
PIAA xtreme white wedge/front side marker light (194) ($19)

matching lights are good, but damn, that's a lot of loot!

You forgot the 1156's for the blinker next to the sidemarker...prolly another 20 bucks.

i probably wouldn't replace my 1156 since they only come on when the turn signal is activated...my polargs will have to do!!

What light bulb did you use for your map light? That, besides my ashtray, is the only yellowish bulb i have, and i hate it every time i turn it on. Thanks for your help.

I have extreme white 9004 and corner lights, but superwhite fogs. . . With this setup the headlights and fogs match really well (almost exactly),corners are not as good, but still decent. There are pics on my cardomain site (Click "My Car" below and then goto Page 3) if anyone wants to check out how they match.

Yeah that's really nice, but I think you have to rewire your corners to get the higher wattage (27watts) to get the color that matches the fogs and headlights perfectly.

Then they become blue. . . Either way they don't match too well. Although they would match better than most.

Blue??? Have you tried it or something?

And which one is a closer match to the other xtreme whites: stock wattage or 27watts?

You can tell the light color when the turn signal is on (Mine light up in the 95) and it is very much blue compared to the rest of the lights.

i have piaa's in my headlights, corner lights, and bumper lights. The corner lights and the bumper lights match really well, but the headlights are a little off. Its not as close a match as i had hoped, but it is definatley a hell of a lot better than stock.

What kind of PIAAs are you using in your bumper and corner lights? And are your corners buring at 27 watts or stock?
