They are very easy to install if you just think a little bit. I have 35w in my car. bulb type is the same size you currently have in your car for low beams and as far as color, its up to you and what you would like more.

my battery cable wires are stripped out so ill be replacing them anyway...they aim kinda low after i put new bulbs in but even if i moved them alittle it wouldnt really help...let me get ur opinions here...check my wires that i have now?or just hope for luck and just buy HIDS?...im leaning towards checking wires

Checking wires are the cheap and easy way, but I would still buy hids for the car either way. They will put your current bulbs to shame.

ill prolly do both...DMM good stuff?

Yes, I have DDM in my car as we speak. 6000k bulbs.

should i go with 6k or?

Whichever you want. Most people probably go with 6k or 8k for headlights.

4300k if you want a stock color and maximum brightness
5000k if you want pure white and maximum brightness
6000k if you want a little blue and less brightness
8000k if you want a sky blue color and just a little more brightness than stock halogens.
10000k+ if you wanna look like a ricer and not see anything at all.

i like the blue but i want brightness so maybe 5k?

6000k would be good. But do what you want since it's your car.

alright 6k it is but still gonna be pretty bright?

Yes they are very bright.

k sweet...just wanna make sure i get the right stuff!Thanks guys...lifetime warrenty on DMM correct?

Correct.

i like blue...i can never make decisions

i have 8000k's. i love the color, they're definitely brighter than factory. i've read of a couple ways to modifiy the bulb itself slightly i believe to get a little more output. you can also try projector headlights, but they're pretty expensive. you can also upgrade your foglights a little bit. sylvania silverstars 35w worked with mine nicely, but they melted the foglight housings

Really? Ive run silverstars for years, minus the occasional premature bulb burnouts, I have had no problems. They should have burnt out before emitting that much heat.

they did, they burnt out in like 3 months lol. i think i went through three of them before they melted. i was pretty upset that a $20 bulb burnt out that quickly
