Hi,
My sister has a 2000 Integra, and she wants some brighter headlights for it.
I've been looking around the net to see what is out there, and I found some at plasmaglow.com
I'm looking at their Platinum series, since this isn't my car I wrote them to see what the wattage was of these bulbs, and to verify if they were safe for the wiring and safe for the headlight housing of this car.
This is what they wrote back

Thank you for your email. Our Platinum Series are high performance bulbs that are brighter and use a new type of filament. The Platinum Series H1 bulbs are 85W and output 5500K. Our bulbs are designed to work with stock wiring, but if you want to have 55W stock bulbs, we have them available in our Plasma Blue.
Thank You,
PlasmaGlow

So are 85W bulbs going to be OK to use in that car? Does anyone have any experience with these? Or does anyone recommend another other brand bulb that will really help light up the road.
She currently has silverstars in there now, they look nicer but really don't light up the road anymore then stock. Does anyone recommend any other brands? PIAA etc?
Also does that car come stock with a H1? I thought it was a 9006?
Thanks
Chris.
