hyper white recommendation
I got some of the hyper-white bulbs for my car, from a vendor on the site- theljnet. If you do a search that guy will pop up. I got 2 pairs for $25 shipped to me. That vendor also carries the foglight bulbs too. I kept my fogs stock. The brand of bulbs I got was Ikdo. I put the link from the thread I found from him, and made my purchase. There are other brands out there, but for the 3 months I've had them in so far I have nothing to complain about. Send a message to this particular seller and ask if its going on, and you should be good to go.

just go with HIDS
after market bulbs will just burn out very fast
and you will end up paying as much as you were for hids
hids are like 50-100 dollars now easily on ebay
just grab it from ebat
or if you local in houston i can get you some for locally with local warranty

trust me bud just get hids, i went through soo many different halogen bulbs and wasted so much money it wasnt even funny, ive bought about 20 kits from this seller on ebay, i have hids in my headlights and fogs, its a direct plug and play and its such a good investment, the kits are only 54 bucks shipped, ive had them on for a year now and i had no problem, same with the other 20 cars i put em on. get 4300k, its the oem color on all cars that come with hids and its the less glare, the ones i have come with a shield around it, i didnt need bi-xenon bec hids are extremely bright and they work very well. heres the link, eBay Motors: H4/9003 HID Xenon Conversion Kit 4300K 8000K 12000K (item 150333219970 end time Apr-17-09 08:07:05 PDT)

Don't go HID's just get a nice set of PIAA's and you can't go wrong. They produce phenomenal light with stock wattage... so no ballasts or burnt out bulbs every couple of months. Then you aren't messing around too much and avoiding the ghetto HID look.

The Name Says it All! PIAA’s Intense White bulbs produce a more radiant white beam without any hint of blue. This bulb has been completely re-engineered from the ground up. What you’ll see in the 9005 and 9006 bulbs is a larger glass tube with a white top coat. The larger glass tube increases output (28% whiter color than STAR WHITE) and allows the bulb to burn at much cooler temperatures. PIAA’s new Intense White Bulbs provide the best possible balance between performance and bulb life.

Single Pack 10934 Bulb Type H4 Wattage 60/55w = 135/125w, 4100K Technology Intense White

I had MTEC 2X bulbs on my 2002 Civic and they looked good. Much better than when I had Sylvannia Silverstars. They're made in Japan. You can get them on ebay:

Nomatter wat kind of aftermarket halogens they are they always dont seem to last long than stock bulbs. They are only a little bit brighter than stock too. I mean wat do have to lose? Its just 54 bucks. And the piaa bulbs are just as expensive and not as bright at all. But hey i guess everyone has to find out eventually, everyone only learns when they waste the money on halogens over and over until you end up get hids. Also like i said get 4300k and it will look the same as piaas but more visibility.

If you want to stick with halogens get PIAA Xtreme's. I had them for almost year before I got my HIDs and never had any problems with them. They were white, with VERY little yellow tint to them, a little brighter than my OEM bulbs, but nothing compared to HIDs. Silverstars suck, even the new ones. They are overpriced and blow like crazy. I went through 3 sets in my time and my wife went through 2 before I tried PIAA and then eventually HIDs. Now that I've had HIDs for over 2 years I know I will never go back. To each his own.
