Headlight Bulbs

[wickedG20]

Does the p11 use H4 Bulbs? I am in need of new headlight bulbs and am thinking about getting these

Click here to see lights

will someone confirm that these fit, thanks

YES.......but I wouldn't reccomend these bulbs.....they were to purpulish....I like the Xtreme Whites better........

[wickedG20]

I did have the xtreme whites, but one burned out. I want to try something new. I've seen them, they look real sharp.

i have these exact bulbs. they are the bomb. except highbeam doesn't have the same purple glow. i love these, probably the favorite i've seen. i've seen all the piaas, CATZ, the blue ones: i don't like, looks ricey. my 2cents

ya, IMO the purple ones look really nice.

Dont wanta go with HID? If you burn out a pair of 60 bucks bulb a year, in 6-7 years you spent 4-500 bucks...same as going with a pair of Real HID and last your the same time

look at this http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t15389.html

email me if you need to get it [email protected]

thought about it... but the aftermarket hid kits still don't look like the vivid lighting that the bmw portray's. Thats the look I want


anyways, when I am replacing the bulb, let me know if I can touch each of the following

1. Black (I assume its ok because thats the only way I can pull out the bulb
2. Green (shoud I avoid touching it)
3. Red (don't even go up there)

am I correct?

I hope that my pictures show better because that if you want something like the BMW's light or better than that, the Hella HID kit is your choice...they are the first one out with the7000k color, it is much whiter than ANY HID on the road...if you come to bay area where i live, email me i can show you

but on replacing the bulbs, you just need to disconnect the connector...then remove the metal holder, than take out the bulbs, replace and do the reverse

[wickedG20]

yeah I know. But the beemers have more of a blue shade of light. I don't want it bright white.

Get those. I have the same thing too. They look very nice in the headlamp. They are a little dim on the strett but they go well with the car. I paid like 80$ for mine, so that is a damn good deal.

You go for the bulbs because they are dimmer on the street...LOL...if you really want aftermarket bulbs...i recommend the Showoff Krypton series...they are pretty good

For Christmas my family bought me new headlight bulbs, but I'm not so sure that they are
a) what I want
b) even street legal

I want to have fake HID's since the real ones are too $$ for my blood. I like a slightly blue hue...

The bulbs in my hands are Eiko 9004-SW HB-1 65/45W but the "container" even says "off-road use only"...

Does anyone know if I will be okay with these??? I get so confused so easily! Must be the blonde in me...

I have the bluish tint ones and they also say "Not for street use"

I have had absolutely no problems though.

Their dimmer on the street b/c the color of the light is a darker color than white. Now, what do you think would be brighter, a purple-ish blue or a white. I'd say white. LOL. Of course ther're goin to be dimmer on the street unless ther're HID's. LOL

[napakapa]

Then how about bluish-purple and halogen...if they are dimmer than halogen, i see a problem there
