I want to keep the stock look of the headlights
but the bulbs just don't seem to do the trick for me.
What i mean is, there not bright enough.
I would like a nice pair of replacement bulbs
that can put out 4300k but the thing is, i DON'T
want to put HIDS in there, just a simple
take a bulb out and put a new brighter one in.

Any suggestions?

A bulb thats around 4300k is going to be dimmer than stock, not brighter (unless it's overwattage).
The only way to get a halogen bulb to look like that is to coat it blue, which absorbs light.

What has you so opposed to HIDs?
And, have you looked at the HIR bulbs? They're significantly brighter than stock, and around 3600k which is still whiter than stock.

thank you.

and i'm not so much opposed to HIDs
it's just i don't want to wire it all up
and deal with taking the bumper off.
i'll probably think about it when i have
other things that involve removing the
bumper, such as horn and lip.
ya know?

and do you know where i can get HIR bulbs?
