Do you run bright white, xenon or factory? Which manufacturer? I've seen the really bright ones that have kind of a blue tint when your looking from an angle. Seems like they work best.

recently upgraded Honda Pilot to Sylvania Silver Stars. The result was a much "crisper" "whiter" light. They cost about $30-$50 pair. Sylvania has been offering $10 rebates on them.
I hear that Phillips also has a good bulb out.
The other high end options (Xenons, etc) usually run several hundred $. I likely is the Xenons that give off the blueish hue. Xenons are somewhat controversial in that many feel they blind the oncoming traffic.

i'll be upgrading mine soon, kind of leaning towards PIAA just cuz of the name but i've seen some really cheap but supposedly nice bright ones on ebay. heh...

Sylvania and Phillips would of course be easier to find at your local retail store. when I get mine in I'll post about it. really wish our cars had an option for HID but i guess thats for Acuras.

on my last car that had 4 headlight bulbs (2high, 2 low), I bought 2 more high beams, cut out the little tabs that prevent it from going into the low beams and put them in the low beam sockets. they were very bright and had them in the for 3 years never having and problems. debating on whether to do it to my '03 Accord

Do they make the Sylvania Silver Stars for the new Accords?
