9006/9005 HID Replacment which is best for Gen. 3 94 Camry

Currently using ebay's Euro Dezigns 8500K Bulbs and not happy with them, looking for the most light at the lowest price and reliability is also a factor. Thinking or Sylvania SilverStar or Ultra? also PIAA Xtreme White Bulb 4150k... Also is the lower "K" better in terms or brightness? Also thinking of DEPO Headlight replacment seen them on eBay for about 109.00 anywhere to get these cheaper... Thanks for the help... Jim

1. halogens are not HID, u dont have HIDs from what i can tell. the stuff u got and are looking for is HID like but a far cry from the real thing. so degrees kelven "xxxxK" doesnt really apply here. in terms on HID the lower the the number the brighter the output but when a halogen says 8500K that means the color is about the same as a 8500K HID bulb but not the light output.

2. the cheap ebay ones are total crap, they dont last long and have a terrible light output.

3. i would personally recommend the silverstars or their new brighter version(someone help me with the name). but when it comes to bulbs u have to pay to play, they arent cheap.

4. depots are a great upgrade and that 109 is about the cheapest ur gonna find them unless u find them used.

I was thinking about those EuroDezigns bulbs but how is the light output if you had to guess? Better or worse than stock bulbs? How was the color on the road?

Bigbird, what kind of bulbs do you have in your pic of you Cam? HID's?

I went from the ebay crap to my current HID setup with projectors and all.

If you are wondering about EuroDezign I've used that before too. I'd say they were my best ebay pair of halogen bulbs, nice color and decent output compared to countless other pairs that looked dimmer than my oem bulbs.

I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about those lights. They looked a little OEM but the end design on the bulb I have never seen before. I too would like to know more (wondering if it is another Ebay Scam).
