I am planning to upgrade the stock bulbs of my Exteem.
What I gathered so far is 100/90W Philips is the way to go.(i lost it between the blue light/rally/xyz).
Q1: Which one?
If your concern is light throw then "Philips rally" is the way to go but still i would recommend to take a look at "Philips blue vision"

and to switch to these higher wattage bulbs, I would also need a good relay.
Q2 Which brand?
Bosch/Roots

Another question that I have is, does Esteem has separate low beam and high beam bulbs or is it integrated in one.
Its integrated one

Lastly, how often ppl have been caught for this perticular modification in there cars?
Havn't heard in delhi, using HIDs as well as blue vision in my car.

no one more...how much would all this cost me?
Bulbs - 1000 Rs
Relay & wiring - 500 Rs
Labor - 50-100 Rs

And one more...how will this affect my warrenty...if I get the upgrade done thru the dealer will he alteast honour my warrenty(in case something goes wrong)?
As far as you do not cut any wire warranty will not be affected, but if some short circuit happened due your wiring or relay malfunction then warranty will be surely voided. So better is to confirm with different dealers, as one dealer may not guide you properly.

Would appreciate some guidance...
