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.

Re: light bulbs

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.

Re: light bulbs

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

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.
