importkiller69ss May 13th, 06, 12:21 PM dse makes a kit buy is pricey....i have these they are half the price and no mods required to get them in they have the replacable h4 bulb white lights and really bright http://www.rallylights.com/hella/7in.asp
alwayscode390 May 13th, 06, 12:24 PM VERY cool.....ok...now for the 4th gen :) ---
importkiller69ss May 13th, 06, 12:25 PM i really have no idea..go to www.summitracing.com in their magazine they have quite a few pages for 4th gens maybe they have lights
alwayscode390 May 13th, 06, 12:30 PM I have seen ROUND replacements (that require alot of modification) , but to me the square stock lights on the 4th gens look better. Thanks for the idea, I just got my new mag a couple days ago too ---
importkiller69ss May 13th, 06, 12:36 PM alwayscode....snet you a pm
Brian Lewis May 13th, 06, 12:54 PM You need a Mad Electric Relay kits (two of them) to wire your headlights for better electrical capabilities. This modification by itself will seriously light up the stock bulbs.
Then you need to consider the Sylvania 6024XV 6024ST or 6024CB to get much brighter than stock

H6024ST Silverstar High Performance Lighting: the whitest and brightest Halogen
H6024XV XtraVision Halogen Upgrade: 3x brighter; 2x the life
H6024CB Cool Blue Halogen Upgrade: White Hot; Super Cool; 100% Street Legal
alwayscode390 May 13th, 06, 01:06 PM Thanks Brian....I am about to do a FULL REWIRE OF THE CAR with a Painless wire kit, do you think the wiring with the kit will be better than stock OR should I still go with the Mad Electric kit? ---
Brian Lewis May 13th, 06, 01:24 PM If the Painless pulls the power for the headlights off the fusebox then you should probably still run Relays. Relays will allow you to pull the power directly off the horn power post instead of having to feed off the fusebox that runs all your running lights, brake lights, instrument panel, radio, etc.
novaderrik May 13th, 06, 03:07 PM for the 69, get some good halogen bulbs from Wal Mart and put a CS series alternator in it with a large cable going straight from the alt to the battery.

alwayscode390 May 13th, 06, 07:06 PM The Xenon and the Hella lights seem like the choice on the 67!!! You guys are GREAT :) ---

WildBillyT May 14th, 06, 05:27 PM Before you order Silverstars for that 4th gen, be aware that they have been known to burn out fast, especially fog lights.
And stay FAR away from Nokya bulbs. Awful QC in my opinion.
