Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior looking for brightest bulbs? can someone help me

I am in the market for the brightest bulb? I have done a good research yet still want to ask you guys which one is the brighest?? I have looked at sylvanias,piaa,mtech,eurodezigns, and still no clue, can someone suggest me a good bulb that is bright as hell? thanks fellas!

if you want "bright as hell" you may want to consider HID's. High Intensity Discharge, lighting. Now those are bright

yes I know but I dont have to $$ to spend, any ideas what bulbs people get here for the ride to light up the roads rather then hids?? I know this topic has been talked to so many times and I still dont know which one to get?

PIAAs

all in all:

PIAA - Extreme White for super whiteness. Expensive
- Spark Blue for a bright white with a sexy bluish tint. Expensive

MTEC - Perfect blend of white and blue. IMO the pair of H7s that I had were super white, like HIDs.

Both MTEC and PIAA should be covered by a warranty

any ideas on where we can get them from? can you buy them online cause i want some bright bulds also for mine (but im in australia)

what about eurodesignzS? anyone have them? piaa i know are lovely but $$$

i have heard mtecs look good (when they work) but piaa are better quality and may be worth it to spend extra money since the other might keep burning out

there arwea aobut a billion threads aobut lights but the consensous is, if you have 80 to spend get piaa, they are the best. if you have a modest budget get mtechs.

dont bother with eurodesignz...they give off a brighter white light, but unlike MTEC and PIAA, they do not improve visibilty at night.

they supposedly give off a light output rating of 7350K-8000K, which will give you more of a purplish tint, but again, will not help you see at night.

MTEC and PIAA are the best way to go. They both offer lifetime warranties - so if they burn out on you, you can have them replaced; though you'd have to pay for shipping.

PIAA's

nice so PIAA is the way to go, how big of a difference between mtech and piaa?? is there a major big diff if so I will go with PIAA??

anyone have the piaa?? which one is the brightest, I see they offer extreme, super plasma,extreme force,super plasma which one is the best out of these that you guys have??

same question, what PIAA is the best, what is a good temp?


4000K ok? or is 7500 much bettER?

I want the brightest bulbs, blue is good but out of all the piaa I see which one emits the brightest?? does anyone have them or any ideas? thanks

dont go much higher then 4k if you want visibility. gets too bleu after that and lessens visibility

check out http://www.luminicsbulbs.com/


they have jdm yellow for 29.99 a pair


superwhite 5,100k for 24.99 a pair

and UV like 7,000k for 24.99 a pair


all with a one year warranty and free shipping

do you have these bulbs? how are they if so?

I recommend the 4,000 for the brightest light you can get before HID.

MTECS and PIAAs are about the same as far as brightness. PIAA are more visible but MTECS are more affordable. They'll last the same amount of time, so quality build has nothing to do with price. PIAAs for clarity, but MTECs are just as good.

Just remember: When you install lights, make sure you keep your fingerprints off the glass. The oil on the surface tends to wear them out faster.

Piaa extreme white, for the brightest whites.
piaa spark blue, for more of a bluish white glow.

looks like everyoen likes piaas extreme, guess that is the winner!! thanks to all fellas!

i recommend the POLARG wizard white...heres a pic..on my car..i think these are the brightest ive seen..6000k..its pricey tho...

if you like what you see..im selln my lightn package in the 4-sale forum...

PIAA xtreme white and the MTEC in the ecelica store
everything else sucks.

piaa's blows out easyly and then whats are you gonna do? buy new ones again...??

my piaa's haven't blown
over two years
and my brother has been using his more than two years.

I have one MTEC and one stock bulb for my low beams because my MTEC's keeps blowing out and my fog MTEC's are blown so that's all I'm using. The MTEC's keep blowing out and I keep replacing the blown one with the same stock bulb as always. Funny how I replaced the stock bulb the same amount of times I had MTEC blow on me and it is still going strong. Nothing wrong with the install there if you ask me.
The stock bulb is as bright or slightly brighter as MTEC's and has better visibility in crappy weather. The cut off is the same for both bulbs.
I can take pictures and maybe I should. I can't comment on PIAA because I never had them.
