light bulbs

which light bulbs would you guys recommend for my GT? are sylvania's any good??

pretty much any bulb other than Eurolite. Actually keep away from any brand that has euro in the title. They burn bright, but burn so hot they end up melting your wiring in a matter of months.

Piaa

xtremevision...i don't have pics of my car w/ them on but THEY LOOK FRICKIN' AWESOME set of 2 w/ lifetime warranties for 20$$ and 35 for 2 pair from the guy on new eclipse .org
thats head and fog lights

$20 thats pretty cheap? sylvania's silverstar are like $40. have you guys ever seen what sylvania's look like?

what is his sig name?? sorry for the double posting.

i put the sylvania"s in my car. i love them! one of the bulbs burned out in 8 months though. think it was just a bad one. other than just that single bulb, i have had no problems.

i believe it is low98eclipse on neweclipse.org they had a hurricane in florida just recently, so i don't kno if you can get ahold of him, but pm him on there and i'm sure he'll get back to you soon trust me they look AWESOME!!

better yet, here is his ebay setup
http://stores.ebay.com/Xtreme-Vison-HID

so you really recommend them??

yup i do, and if you ask around on neweclipse.org, the only thing i got from the people that had them there were good reviews.....
not to mention just send the bulbs back that in some rare instance break, EVEN IF IT IS YOUR FAULT they replaced a few peoples who put them in and had gotten them dirty and blew the bulbs...

must buy :D :thumbsup:

Anybody Have Any Night Pics Of Their Cars With Aftermarket Light Bulbs, Sylvania,xtremevision Etc...

is it easy to install new bulbs? anyone done it before? directions are appreciated.

please tell me you know how to change headlights

the bulbs can be kind of difficult the fiorst time you do them. but after that they are easy!! adjusting them is a pain though. the kogs on my lights broke odff, so i have to use a long screw driver to adjust them. just be carefull when you snap the bulb in so that they do not fall back out!!!!!

i don't know for sure about silverstars, but i've heard some people say they suck and they are also ridiculously expensive. i ordered those xtreme vision bulbs off club3g and they will hopefully come before this weekend. they had a pic of what they looked like on a civic in the for sale thread and it looked SWEET. white with bluish tint. for that price i figured it would be worth it. i'll let you guys know how it turns out.

here's a link for the thread:
http://www.eclipseforums.org/fortopic170704.html

the pic of the civic is on the second page. the civic has h4 headlight bulbs so the tint and brightness should be almost identical on our 3g's.

thanks guys its just that ive never intstalled any bulbs before, it shouldn't be that difficult.

no its not that difficult, but i guarantee you will beat your knuckles up the first time. hell i still beat mine up now.

the install took me about 30 minutes, 10 of which was figuring out how to get situated to do the fog lights and jacking up the car, 15 minutes was figuring out how to undo the bulbs before and the other 5 was doing the second fog and second headlight
it is extremely easy once you figure it out, and i'll try to get pics of my car w/ them soon

you dont have to jack up the car to do the fog lights. all you have to do it unscrew the 3 bolts that hold the headlight housing in, pull the headlight housing out and voila, the fog lights are right there. i can change my headlights and fog lights in about 10 mins

the passenger side headlight is a little harder due to the lack of hand space to pull the rubber off

actually i found it easier, its a twist and a click if your underneath the car twistthe housing and click the wires off of it, the piece comes out and you can replace it from there, there wasn't any bolts from the front, i've got the bumper that has the foglights molded in (03+ bumper)

yeah i have an '03 too. but i cant get to my fog lights from the bottom unless i jack up the car. so i just go in through the top by taking out the headlight housing which takes all of 2 mins. i just changed my headlights and foglights in 15 mins

I want to replace my bulbs with something colored lol.

I had blue lights in when I bought the car, the previous owner I guess swapped out the stock lights (I assume they are stock) for some blue lights. And my car came with the stock lights in a case in the glove compartment. Which was nice, it was the only thing the previous owner ever changed on the car, everything else is still stock other than the altezzas I put on the back.

So anyway, last week the right passanger one went out. So I put the stock lights back in. But I want blue lights again. I just really liked the color. Oh ya my back up lights are blue also, he changed those too.

Are the Xtreme-Vision good? Its been awhile since this thread was posted so I'm wondering if anyone has changed their thoughs on the Xtreme-Vision or had problems since they got them. I want to make sure whatever I decide to get is good quality and will look great. I hate going half ass on stuff.

Also you can put in blue fog lights????

i have the xtreme vision, the guy that runs the company is awesome and the bulbs look awesome...i would have some pics but i'm down til i get a new wireless card... gf pulled the other one out while the comp was on and fried it

and i didnt' think about taking the whole headlight off, i didn't know i could get to it from there, but i won't hafta worry about that for a while hopefully

i have the xtreme vision too. ive had them for about 2 months now and no problems yet. look great. if you have fog lights, the the headlights and the fog lights. they look awesome

have the extreme vision bulbs too and i must say for $15/pair, you're DEFINITELY not gonna find anything better. they have a very nice look to them especially at a distance.

I'm gonna give them a try then. Thanks guys!
