Hello all. I Had a couple of questions for everyone. What are the brightest bulbs i could get for this kit: http://209.211.252.231/details.asp?ProdID=815

Also would getting brighter bulbs risk shorting/burning out the electrical system? I was told this by a car stereo place that sell a similar kit. I'm new to the scene and this to me just doesn't make since.:huh: It would seem that it would be like swapping a light bulb for a house lamp in a sense. As long as the wiring can handle it and the bulb housing, you're fine. Please give me advice here since i would really like to get the brightest lights I can and be safe at the same time. Thanks in advance.:bow:

I have Xenon bulbs, but I think that the Piaa bulbs would be brighter. Mine are hella bright. People sometimes think I have my highs on but in fact I only have my lows on. I get the finger a lot.

I think www.piaa.com or check your local auto parts stores. I think www.toucan-industries.com might have them.

I'm on my work computer right now so I don't have the correct toucan site, I thought it was it but it's not. The piaa site does have prices, those bastards. What is this, a school for ants? How do you expect children to learn if they can't fit in the building. The building is going to have to be at least three times bigger than that!

Those lamps are a hell of a deal. I bought mine from APC and I paid $45 for each one. From the picture they look really similar.
