Thanks Akshay. Your reply has given me answer to a question for which I was searching the entire Team-BHP. But it was difficult to provide a search string that would give me the answer on using Halogen in Low Beam. So I will now put on Osram NightBreaker. I think Philips Xtreme Power does not come in H1. I will update once I finalize on the headlights

I am not going for HID as I think it costs atleast 6000Rs. The max I can afford at this moment is 2000.Will add it later

Osram Nightbreakers dont throw white light. Infact the light is very close to the Fog light color. You can try BlueVision. They are available in H1.

dont spend much on the low beam now. get any decent bulbs even if yellow. get hids asap ans youll enjoy your projectors much more.

Folks

Any idea where one can get 4300k, 50Watt HiDs? I want a pair each of H3, H7 and H4 (hi & lo) . Importantly the bulbs should come with a ceramic holder and not plastic.

Go back to original or use Osram All weather. White are totally for looks unless they r xenon.

Yes.Will be going for only a low cost H1 Halogen for the Low Beam at the moment. Will H1 Halogen be available for 500Rs or less?

@Fountainheader: What is the update on your angel eyes from Viper? Have you installed it or still not received it?

white_vdi · 29th March 2009, 02:08

Thanks White_VDI. I had missed this post by FH. It looks cool FH!!!
One thing I found is some Angel Eyes have three LEDs as parking lights and some have bulbs. FH has got bulbs it seems

But then, why bother selling? Just clean it, pack it and store it. It might come in handy sometime.

Was offered 6k for them.... to keep or to sell, that is the question.

btw, any idea where i can find those hella 550FEs?

that is quite a lucrative offer man! if you need some cash, go for it. i wasnt expecting it to be more than 4k a pair.

I suggest you go for Philips Rally. I have it in my zen and I am happy with it.
