jameshot · 09-21-2006, 08:25 PM

got the hella 9006's and 9005's from pep boys before and after pics,did anyone else change the factory bulbs and see a rust color in the bulbs ? cost was 47.99 each set much whiter and brighter.10.00 bucks more than the silverstars thought i would try them after all hella has a good rep.

I'm sorry, but that looks no different than the stock bulbs...

There's more fill / light being thrown out. There's a difference. Need an update on how they ride at nite and some pic's at nite...
