The JC Whitney lights are much whiter than stock but they do not look "blue". They are slightly brigher than stock, as they are 80 watt low beams rather than the stock 55 watt lows. The High beams are MUCH brighter, as they are 100 W vs the stock 60 watt.

Quick bit of advice for you. Head out one friday or saturday night. Find some "import enthusiasts" and find one who's headlights are the kind/color/brightness you are looking for, give him props on the car and ask him where he got his bulbs from.

Ask as many people as you can find with the 'right' color/look headlights and see if they are all using the same or different brands. Then you will have a "choice" of headlights.

I'll e-mail you a photo to night of Stock Versus JC-Whitney bulbs.

One quick last question. did you just buy normal PIAA lights, or did you buy PIAA superwhite or superblue or something of that sort?

The plastic case the bulbs came in say
"PIAA Professional Halogen Lamp Systems
Super White" and on the top of the container it says "PLATINUM Brilliant H.I.D. color"

So I guess to answer your question, I got Platinum Series Super White's... smile.gif By the way, thank you for all your help.

Hey Random, I don't mean to be a pest or anything, but I was lookin on www.jcwhitney.com and I couldn't find the lights you were talking about, the only plazma lights I found were like 30$.. Could you maybe give me a direct link? Thanks again for your help..
