ad78 · 01-08-2009, 03:10 PM

i dont have any plans to put some leds. not worth i think..
i have tried GP but 2days of running driver side went out. and not as good as oem

anyone tried HOEN or LUMINICS? i saw on some site they are 35W but light output is 110W. might goin to throw codes on 135..

Tried luminics, didn't throw a code. Their light output rating is bogus as is their temperature rating. 5500K was more like 4000Kish. Instead of rating it in terms of lumens they say light output wattage rating. Tried their titanium whites, but looked the same as stock in terms of light output and color.

I might try the blue one..

Hoen bulbs are outstanding! I had them on my GTI fogs and they were super bright and white. Haven't tried the h8, but I think it is well worth a shot.

we have been fine with our mtec's jdm color, super white or cosmos blue

no error either!

also because these are lower kelvin then GP thunder, its also a little bit brighter
