Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any feedback on upgrading the headlights and fog lights. I have a blown fog light and now may be the time to upgrade. Looking for a whiter and brighter light relatively inexpensive. What are the sizes I should be looking for? Thanks.

 

many threads, use the "search" box.. you'll find plenty.

 

H13 headlights, H11 fogs. If you want beter lighting on the "cheap" go Sylvania Silverstars. The next step up woud be: 1) HID's in stock housings (not recommended IMO due to massive glare for oncoming traffic) or 2) a true HID retrofit which will cost you $$.

Read about a lot of members unhappy w/the Sylvania Silverstars.

Some said they burnt out quickly.. That's why I suggested a search to see both sides from members.

 

I've had mine for a few months now and haven't had any problems at all. Light output on them is MUCH improved over stock and they light up signs + reflectors on the highway over 1/4 mile away (seriously). HID'S would be the way to go but they're not cheap if you want them done right IMO; plus I don't care to go yanking fuses due to the DRL. Remember the OP wanted a fairly cheap way to upgrade his head + foglights. If he/she doesn't like the Silverstars they can always go back to stock, save up and get a true retrofit later on but hey that's my .02.

I put the silverstars in last year, so far so good. Sylvainia says their ultra will be out next spring for the H13. I put 9005's ultras in my fogs. They are bright. The stock fogs were only 37 watts while the 9005's are 55 watts.

 

I did DDM Tuning HID's in my HHR stock housing and they work GREAT!!!
