I have the H7 version in OE projectors on my Celica and they are great, easily double the light of stock bulbs. Read online about the H4 version, you'll see nothing but outstanding results.

That's a 9008 and not going to fit. You'll need H4 or 9003. Not all of them come in a pair.

Go for the ones that Bitter posted. There's really no reason why one would want to go cheap on something that's an important part of your safety in a car.

I had put myself these '' so called 90% more light '' bulb ... And seriously , they are better than my 10 years old one .... But not to say ''90% more '' be serious , same number off watts

If you want to pay less : go to Ebay.co.uk ... and call them from united kingdom ..

I pay mine like 35 $ CAD shipping included

Now I have do a retro-fit with projector and I have HID 35 watts . Nice improvement but not enough again ...

But my headlight are Unique .

edit : Bid on those : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/100-B...Q5fAccessories YEah this is a good deal if shipping is not too high
