Bosch H4's rock!

just dropped in some H4 Bosch headlights, and damn what a difference, seriously night and day over OEM.

not a bad price either. i have Hella H4's in my Supra and i swear the Bosch's are much brighter with just the stock bulbs they come with.

i was thinking of maybe going to a higher wattage bulb, but i'm not sure thats a great idea on the stock wiring, since its pretty messy as is.

anyway's. for any of you guys that drive at night and need some brightness infront of ya, i highly suggest these. i was seriously having to avoid accidents beforehand because of crappy old OEM , half burned out bulbs


anyone else running these? how do ya like 'em?

just got em from lordco, not sure what you have in Cali, but im sure any major distributer can get em.

i was thinking of taking before/after pics, but i wasnt sure the difference would be this big. i do have to aim them a bit better tho, so i could just swap the old ones back in for a sec while doing so to show the difference...

depends on the bulb. can go to a super-white if i want. but probaly going to raise the wattage, and my car has enough electrical probs as is

they are h4's, so essesntially any common day bulb you can imagine will fit. white, super-white, blue... only drawback is the more draw on the electrical system when running higher watt bulbs

but yes, compared to OEM they are white. haha

I've had mine in for almost 3 years now and I would never go back. Next is HID's. Its the H4's are a nice bright white light not that shitty yellowish light anymore.
