Aftermarket headlight bulb recommendations

Hey everyone. (I did a search for headlights and nothing came up)

I have a 2018 EX, and I am wondering which after market light bulbs people have used, or recommend for replacement? I’m looking for LED if possible.

SYLVANIA Xtra Vision 9003 ( H4 ) . Clear glass to get bright white light to help with clarity at night . Last up to 4 years . Less than $23 a pair at Walmart . Second choice is PHILIPS Vision Plus . I think they're under $25 . Been using both for FITs for over 10 years . Keep us updated on your decision and describe your perception .

PIAA Xtreme White.

I'm on my second set of these light bulbs. Burn out within 6 months. The brightness is just a tick below going LED. DRL's still work.

Would love to go LED. I was told that DRL's will not be working. I'll stay with the H4 set up. I don't want to lose my DRL's.

GTR LED Lights.

If I decide to go full LED headlights,

I'm going with GTR Lighting.

With their research and development they seems to know how LED Lighting works on cars.
