H4 headlight conversion...they are all over ebay...$50 generic brand - $100 Hella brand.....well worth the money tooo...easiest mod too D with that conversion it opens you up to the most common light bulb in existance..i bought the $50 conversion and threw away the bulbs it came with and just bought som PIAA H4's for $60....the brightest headlights now short of HID...and all for about $100

Anyways the cheapest route is the H4 conversion, as he said. The PIAA's are NOT the brightest bulb, they just have a good marketing department. Osram Silverstars are the absolute best out there, good luck finding them within the U.S. though. Sylvania 'stars are NOT the same.
i think i am going to go with some PIAA's they r good quality lights that have been through it all

omg are you serious???? do i need to bring out the pics of piaas in one light and shitty silverstars in the other? silverstars are the high end Kragen bulb...they arent HALF as bright as the piaas i have trust me...silverstars are over rated...i wasted $60 on them once already....and buy the way they are not ricer bulbs..its a known fact that a slightly higher kelvin rating transfers further...meaning yes they are a little blue but i searched for a long time and sment countless dollars before ending up with piaas...

PIAA makes a overrated 55w H1 and a 65/55 H4 in white. Osram which makes Silverstars in the same. I sell Osrams in H1 H4 and H7 formats and live in Mass too.
I will be in Boston picking up my "new to me" 92 325iC tomorrow.
actually i have the PIAA H4 PLATINUM SUPER WHITE bulbs...they are 110/100w bulbs thank you

Careful you don't melt any wires. Or for that matter you reflector in your headlights. [/b][/quote]
ran them over 6 months with no issues...that was my concern too but no problems so far and since i totalled my e30 they got put into my buddies M3 and they still rock and no burnt wires D ....dont worry i checked into it before just slapping themm in
