Default Xenon bulbs

Looking for some good quality white xenon bulbs. The only ones I can find are labeled white but they have way too much blue in them. I want as pure of a white beam as possible. Any suggestions?

DONT GET XENON BULBS! Get an HID kit. You can get a 5K or 6K kit for around $40 on ebay that will work great. You'll spend that much alone in replacing bulbs for your tib over a short period because bulbs dont last in those cars. HID's will last and be brighter!

I have also considered that. An old coworker got some Raptor HID's for like $40 they have decent reviews.



I'll look at the ones on ebay thanks.

I like the looks of these ones. Are they the ones you mentioned?

Some kits are super cheap, some are good quality. some of my bulb pieces have actually fallen apart before and I've had to glue them together.



InvisionAutomotion just started selling HIDs. Supposedly they're shooting for high quality kits, hence a slightly higher price. http://www.invisionautomotion.com/Ge...Kit-s/1954.htm



Hit them up about a kit for your Tiburon. I can't think right now of what the 99 Tib uses, it might be similar to the Veloster.

the only HID link you need..



slim, full digital ballasts..



I ran them in my Srt-4 and currently run two sets in my Jeep. Combined use of DDM kits = ~5 years. never a SINGLE issue..



DDM slim 40$



they also have the Raptor (not full digital and bigger ballasts) for 5$ less. go with the slim, all digital ones imo.



Life-time warranty also.
