my piaa h4 xtreme force bulbs just blew out in 1/ 1/2 years.

 

I have been running the regular SilverStars in mine but they seem to burn out in a little over a year. I always wipe them down with alcohol and use gloves to install them. I recently bought some Silverstar ultra's that are supposed to last longer and be brighter but I have not installed them yet.

 

h4 bulbs traditionally last much longer than h1 bulbs so don't get confused by the recommendations made here from people who have used them on the 03-05 headlights will not necessarily have the same experience with an h1 version. I recommend staying with stock bulbs, they work great for me, 2 years going strong

 

Interesting. I had an 04 Crossfire (no HID offered) and ran Silverstar in the low beam, high beam, and fogs for 3 years and never had one die. Something like 35k miles, and I almost ALWAYS ran with lows/fogs on even in daytime.

I just picked up Silverstars to replace my fog/high bulbs in the G I just bought. The factory fog bulbs are so awful lit up below the HID lows.

 

Is that the same as a 9003? Chart I got off this site says high and fog are 9003, which since that's a dual filament bulb I assume the same bulb is used for both high and fog, alternating which filament is lit.

 

mtecs have lasted awhile for me. of course i prob just jinxed myself, but i still recommend them.

 

PIAAs are expensive initially but it's well worth the money in the long run.

 

i guess not for me. burnt out after year and half running them always with headlights. i guess that is pretty good. i dont know

 

what is the bottom light, that doesnt look really good IMO. Most people do not care about lightening brightness when changing bulbs. Its for color. HIDS are bright enough for the headlights, I just didnt like that yellow stock bulb.

 

Bumping an old thread. Curious as to what fog bulb that is in the picture above. The color is great! Looking for some deep yellow fogs (without going HID). let me know asap! Thanks!

 

year and a half is perhaps the low end of the spectrum. However if you buy cheaper bulbs it would have burned out in half the time or less.

Cheap now, then it adds up later.

 

Anyone got a good place to get a set of PIAA 2500k H4 Fog bulb?? Ive seen them around for like 70 bucks or so. If anyone knows a place cheaper, let me know!

 

Question where did you guys get your h4 mtec bulbs?

 

check out ebay

 

If you are in cali, most motoring shops carries it.
