3rd Generation Have you seen the light?

Just short of going to HID, what are the brightest, whitest headlight bulbs available? I want to replace the ugly, dim, yellow bulbs(9006, 9005) in my headlights. Are there any bulbs that will get close to sunlight (about 5000K)? I would do a HID retrofit, but I can't afford the time or money right now. I've looked into PIAA, HELLA, POLARG, NOKYA, ...ect. Any suggestions/ other brands?

i personally dont like silverstars because of their color output which is a little whiter and stock but as far as brightness, silverstars are bright....ive never tried nokya but i heard that they were pretty bright and gave a better color output than silverstars

btw, dont get PIAA's as far as I know of, they burn out too quickly and they cost about $70 a piece as if you get a pair of silverstars - $40 or nokya - $25.

Heres the site to buy bulbs - http://www.automotivelightingusa.com...ex&cPath=10_14



a pic of luminics vs stock

I have luminics ultra white myself and you can see how babyblue they are which is why I dont reccomend, but I do reccomend these :
