Light Upgrade! Quote:

The throw of the light has improved a lot and the overall coverage area has widened. Looking at the light output I felt whether I would have been happier with the night breakers with 90% more light output in comparison to a regular halogen. This is the initial impression and will update you guys soon after finishing a few more kms of night ride. |
Hi Vroom,
How has your experience been so far with the upgrade of your head lights?
Question to all.
I know this has been discussed (a lot for that matter) some where in the forum , but i'm still have questions about the type/make of light upgrade i should go for. the OE was just not enough for me. Well not that I got to drive my truck long distance (the one I did was from Trivandrum to Panthalam and back). This was the 1st and only long drive (if you can call it long at all) i've had and was pretty sure that i needed a better output.
Before I could make any more of these trips, I was assigned to a project work and I'm currently in Vancouver, Canada. My Odo was about 2k when I left India by begining of this month.I did read a thread last night on this topic and got confused ( to be honest ) with all the reviews. I hear some folks very happy with Phillips Diamond and Blue Vision Plus bulbs, and some with Crystal Vision and few others with GE and Osram.
My understanding is this -
a) Since i do mostly city driving and occasional ( 3-4 times a month) the so called long and extra long drives, I should be happy with Crystal Vision.
b) Should I stick to the OE ratings or got for 90/100 ?
c) Should i get them in India or can i buy them from Canada or the US?
d) Will buying from US/CAN be a rip off and what about warranty. Will it be international?
e) How about Xenons?
I would be extra glad if folks could guide me to the right direction.
