    I replaced my headlight bulbs on my 98 GP GT a couple years ago but they still seem dim. What is the BRIGHTEST bulb to replace the one there now? I do not want to do any electrical mods, just find the brightest bulb to change myself - thanks!

    Or there is a brand called Halo that makes bulbs cheaper than the Silverstars and you get a color selection. They sell em on ebay i used them in my old car and they were pretty bright. Im also looking at new headlight bulbs as well

    you are never going to be happy with the output in the stock headlight housings. The only alternative is doing a retro fit into your stock housing. You can put all the bulbs you want that claim to be the brightest and such but its not going to change the fact that the reflector sucks. Even plug and play hid's suck for our cars. Dont let anyone fool you on this, ive been doing this for years. I did a retro fit into my housings with rx-330 projectors/300zx clear lens swap it is awesome. Check out hidplanet.com and they will school your woes for sure.

    The HID install looks easy on the demo for 9007-2 conversion kit. Think I will give that a try. Opinions? Seems popular on this forum. Standard kit.
