Purchased the Nokya H4 7000k Arctic White Head Light Bulbs (Stage 1) today for $19.99 and look forward to getting them. I see they have the same power consumption as the factory bulbs so that's good. Also purchased the Super Bright LEDs 194 style LED lights for the parking lights (right above the low beam section on the head light) in a 9 LED configuration in cool white 10900k which is part number 921-x9. It was around $7.50 for the pair plus another roughly $7.00 in USPS First Class mail.

I can take photos if anyone is interested once I install them.

I didn't do the fog lights since I purchased yellow fog light film to accent the car. I think yellow fogs look great on white and black cars.

Well some bad news..My Nokya's died today. Pulling out of my garage turned on my headlights and pow! My driver side went out. I was so mad. I loved the looked and performance of the Nokya's. I went and put my Silvania Silverstars back in because I didn't want to drive with a light out (luckily I can switch them out in like 2 minutes).
Not sure if I will get Nokya's again or not. I am thinking of looking at the Phillips Xtreme power but don't know if they look similiar to the Nokya's.
I hope everyone elses Nokya's last longer than mine. Mine only lasted 5 months .

I could always buy another set...and keep my one that works to have one backup. We will see.

I had a set of Phillips Xtreme. No more than 6 months. Similar timing with the Silverstars, slightly more than 8 months on our old CRV. You simply cannot get more without giving up something for more light. Unfortunately, that something is longevity. I've given up and is waiting for a real projector set. I might cave in and get the annoying kit if nothing is available after the summer.

Thanks for the input. Hopefully my Silverstars last longer. I had them in 6 months already before I put my Nokya's so hopefully they last. I've had Silverstars in the past and they lasted well over 2 yrs (in my old integra which I then sold the car and they were still in there) so I think its a hit or miss with Silverstars. Thanks again for your input with the Xtremes though. I will really consider wasting more money if they only last 6 months.

I am in the same boat as you...I want projectors and an HID kit. I'm miss my HID's from my CL-S.
