About ready to replace old yellow bulbs on 1995 rt/10 with PIAA bulbs. Low AND high beams are both 9005 right? And the fog lights are H3?

Which line of bulbs have you guys used and how do they look. I know, I know HID is the way to go but bulbs will have to do for now. Thanks

Any of the PIAA or Hella Bulbs are great. It depends on what you want to do and how much Watts you dare to put in your lamps. I run with following bulbs:
H3-15955
9005-19615.

Read the following post CAREFULLY and you will find what you need to know.
I included a post I made; also pictures in my photo album.

After all that has been said, including what I said about my Viper having all 4, 9005 bulbs, I bought 4 of the following bulbs:

Order 2X bulbs which are the 65 Watt
"AUTHENTIC" MTEC H7 2X XENON SUPER WHITE HID BULBS
These are 65 Watt, and MUCH brighter than the Sylvania stock bulbs. Plus I ordered and received them 4 days after order. I have no fear about power draw.

Later,

PIAA burn out way way too fast...they look great, but if you are willing to replace them every once awhile..

Here's my choice for fog lamps. They don't tax the electrical system and make a major difference. Also less heat than some of the HID bubs which tend to crack Gen2 lenses.

I personally like the Piaa Yellow Ion for the fogs. I have 6k HID setup so the yellow gives a nice contrast.
