    low beam bulb is actually a h3c bulb. but you can convert it to a h3 bulb..


    few options with lights.

    1.
    -put a HID kit into it. you can buy a h3 kit (does not matter because HID's use their own ground)
    -when using a HID kit make sure you adjust the angle of them as they are very bright.
    -ebay do many differnt kits. there is 35w and 55w any of them will do fine. obviously 55w will be brighter but dont think you need it.

    2.
    -convert your headlights to h3, then run some phillips blue/crystal vision (i find phillips to be the best bulbs.) dont go diamond vision as they are useless and you will not see anything.

    3.
    - clean out your headlights as they are really dirty, real dustly. there is a tutorial on how to do it.

    also note that there is a mod you can do so when you flick on your high beams your low beams dont turn off, this is good because HID's dont like being turned off and back on.

    high beams. like mentioned they are h1's go crazy with whatever you want to put.
    HID kit will be good.. but like i said they dont like being turned on and off.

    hope it helps. ask for any more details. we are more then welcome to help.

    EDIT:
    also note that higher wattage halogen bulbs dont make more light then normal wattage. (eg. 55w compared to 100w) some people swear by it. but i have seen them side by side and i could not tell a difference. the 100w will make more heat and i have seen a camry warp its headlight from using higher wattage bulbs.

    Rooky Mistake:

    nobody Goes to Supercheap.

    most of their employees don't work on cars so they don't know what most parts are they sell. everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY comes into work complaining about the service at supercheap.

    also, you don't need hid's and they are illegal anyway. just get philips 4000k or 4300k bulbs and they are 55/60's i think but don't quote me. it will give you a similar effect to hid's but the cops won't defect you depending on state law.

    even just get philips +100's, which are brighter and give you twice the distance. some people say using high kalvin bulbs like 4300's are like being in a room with fluerescents for long distance driving and can make you tired. each their own.
