Whats the deal with these zenon blue lights? Are they brighter? They worth it?

They're just for looks. If you want to make a functional upgrade to your lights, you'll have to get a real HID kit for about $400- $500.

If you get the HID kits, you should also replace the headlight assembly. Focal points do not match up between OEM bulbs and xenon arc.

Tugger's talking about real HID's. The Xenon bulbs on SR should work fine. But, be sure to check our store, I'm sure we'll be selling some too. 8D

I actually did see a difference when I installed those ultra white type lights. My gf lives up in the country area kinda so its alot darker than im used too since im in NY and its bascially bright here at night. But when I drive up there and its pitch black I can see so much clearer & further away I also installed those ultra xenon bulbs in my foglights, so all that light output combined really really lights up the road ahead. Id say go for it, wont hurt your wallet much either they run about $20-25 a set. I suggest using 55watts though I had 100w in my accent and one blew out a few months later, it coulda had a fingerprint on it or somthing so im not sure if the wattage was the result of it blowing out. But I reinstalled em with a 55w set this summer and so far no problems whats so ever. :

you might want to check and make sure they're legal... i know they're illegal in FL if they're aftermarket lights - especially in the blue... the hyper white are OK though
