I am getting a set of Yellow 9005 and wanted to know if anyone has incountered these brands whether they be Yellow bulbs or jus headlight bulbs.

Thanks all.

ok i can tell u experience in those brands for 9006,,i actually got the eurolight 9006 at first the xenon head lampz,,they where OK but use to blow out too quikly,,then i got the Luminics 9006 Xenon,,much brighter and lasted a while but it melted my harness,,Now i have the Nokya 9006 Xenons,,VERY bright,,ALMOST like HID,,running real nice didnt burn my harness,,and it actually has a nice blue tint to it,,,

So for qualitt go for Nokya,,for a better colour tint in the bulb go for Nokya,,but to save money and something that wont burn ur harness get Eurolight..good for starterz

They are going to be used in a sorta "city lights" fashion.

I bought new balisters and will be fab'ing them into my high beam section.

I know what I want to do, know how to due to previous city light installs...my only question was what brand to try. Thanks for the help so far.

Also the reason I went with 9005 over 9006 was for pure size. The 9005's are a little smaller and from previous experiences easier to cram into that smaller area.

I had those luminics in my car too. That was a huge mistake. I reverted back to stocks after those luminics burned my harness too. They weren't that great anyways. Go for nokya's or a true hid. If you can find them, PIAA's are pretty damn good. I think they're a little bit better looking then the nokya's, but you're gonna pay the price.

Yea, see I can find the 9005 Noyka's off eBay cheap and that is why I wanted to know if they were worth it.

So far Nokya 2 other 0.

I am running Halos now. NIce color but not bright. I had a pair of Optx and thise were brighter. I had DRLs though and they burnt out in 6 months. I disabled DRL now.....ill see when these go out.......I was gonna get Nokyas or Artic next.

None of these compart to the output of silverstars but teh color is better.

If only silverstars came in colored bulbs.

I am using HALO yellow H4 in my headlights. Actually only one side though (driver)

It has been in use for 8 months, I did not disable DRL, and I commute about 2.5 hours each day. So an estimate of 600 ours of use so far.

ive got luminics in my lows and nokyas in my highs, and both are pretty damn good, real nice deep yellow and i can see the road damn good.

I am looking to use them on a low setting. I am actualy looking for somethign that is NOT to bright. Less glare and more fog cutting / aesthetics.

Meaning city lights you mean like a reduced DRL?

I heard good stuff about Luminics IN THIS POST
Im thinking about getting a set of the yellow 9005 for my highs/DRLs

Yes. City Lights are a very common thing in Japan on cars. Most area's of Japan from what I have learned require "City Lights" (a yellow bulb) to be run like DRL here in the states.

This is the look I am going for.
