Default Xenon Bulb Question

Hey guys, i'm looking to replace my stock bulbs with xenon bulbs but i'm not looking to buy a kit because of the price. I was looking at two brands on e-bay and i was wondering if any of you knew which might look the best and not be a total waste of money.

Lonk Link #1


or


Long Link #2

(sorry for the long links)

I'm leaning more towards the first link but i think it only comes with the lowbeams. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

I wouldn't buy those personally. Maybe look into PIAA.

I had bought a cheap set of those "xenon" bulbs just to test out before I got a plug-n-play HID kit. Not worth it IMO

The one's I bought were just regular bulbs with a very deep blue coating on the outside. They were EXTREMELY dim. They were bluer/whiter than the silverstars I replaced with them.

Alright, thanks guys. I might just go with the $40 ones or save for the kit.

I bought a set of PIAA's for my low beams from lordco 3 days ago. they were 77$ canadian plus tax. Pretty much brighter then my high beams. I have bought the cheap knock-off ones from ebay before, they really do suck.

Any these ones have a 1 year warrenty, Lordco will give you new ones if they burn out, and you have recipt.
