Im thinkin about gettin the PIAA headlights for my car. I have a 97 Teg GS-R. Im thinking about getting the Spark Blue lights for my low beams and the hyper whites for my high beams. What do you guys think about that combination, should I just get both high and low blue or white. Also, I have NO clue about which ones to get (i.e. - 9600 9500 etc...) If you guys know any good websites to buy these or if you could help me out that would be great. Thanks. This is the website that I was looking at. http://www.eautoworks.com/html/ORD-1-1-1-7045.cfm

piaa's look really good. I had them in my car, and my friend has them in his Integra. If I were you I wouldn't even buy any aftermarket bulbs for high beams, I mean that's $50-$80 for something you hardly use.

I have been through 2 sets of PIAA's and my 3rd set just went out all within a year and a half. They wont take them back a 3rd time, so i bought a REAL HID conversion kit off ebay for the price i paid for my PIAA's, and they look real sick.

Not everyone wants a HID conversion tho..besides you gotta be carefull with parts like that from ebay. i dont see a need in getting the high beams either. go for it

They have a one-year warranty, and you gotta return them in the plastic thing they came in, and have a receipt. A year and a half is actually a pretty long time for aftermarket bulbs.

HID conversions are Illegel in some areas. Also, PIAA's have a 1-year warrenty, as I have said before and Ricochet said above. Save the Reciept, and the plastic box they came in. I've used the warretny before, and it was no problem, take it in, get a new pair, come out. All I can say it the place you went is a bunch of jerks. Also, 1 1/2 years is more than 1 year, which is the warrenty. PIAA is the only bulb that has a warrenty like this Anyway, and if you ask me, it's worth it just in case.
