Just got back from Autozone and was looking at blue headlight bulbs!

Civic Pride · 10-27-2006, 07:52 PM

So i want my car headlights bulb to look blue when on, instead of the regular stock white color and i was looking at some bulbs for the headlight and i found some cool blue headlight bulbs and i ask wich ones do i need for my civic and he check on the pc and told me the ones i need are #9006.

What are the headlight bulbs that we need? i have a cupe by the way.

and are they easy to install? he said i dont have to take the headlight apart all i have to do is done from the inside of the hood..

The set of both bulbs is only $37.

Has anyone done this?

hmm... you were proably looking at sliverstars, i have the same ones on my car now. there the new "utlra" sliverstars brighter than the ones i have and those are about $47 with a $10 mail in rebate.

low beams are 9006 and drl/high beams are 9005 and if you go to pg 234 in your manual it will tell you how to replace your blubs...

hopefully everthing will go smooth for you. should take some pics after the first one is installed. silverstars are ok and retros arejust a tad expensive for me right now so im going to go with a pnp kit for now heres a comparsion:

6000k pnp kit on the left and silverstars on the right

i wanna jump on the rep bandwagon too how bout some?

How much and hwre did you buy your pnp kit?

Plug n Play kits are available anywhere from www.xenondepot.com, www.hidplanet.com, www.xenonpros.com, etc etc or even ebay. Remember when it comes to HID conversions, you GET what you PAY for. Pay $150, and expect crap. Expect to spend $280-350 for a decent setup. Go for a name brand ballast & starter like Philips or McCulloch, or even Denso.

BTW Silverstars loook sooooo orange in that pic compared to HID. eep.

buying just the bulbs to get a xenon look is pointless...horrible road visibility. Just buy and HID kit and dont waste ur money on the bulbs
