Question not really SVX, but 9004 & 9006 headlights...

I need to be able to see out of my car (VW Vanagon ) so I'm looking for some kick ass bulbs, I think it takes 9004 and 9006. I have a relay kit to run them straight off either the battery or the alternator depending on how much kick I decide I want to have, but I want to know if any brand and model kick arse... I want the brightest I can have

Napa, Sorry to slide off subject for a moment, but were you aware that one of the most popular destinations for EG33 motors from wrecked SVXi is into the Vanagon??? My Subie guy has sold a number of motors to a fellow in the NW that does the swap.

On subject, why don't you look at some HID's?

I'm actually working on the eg33/Vanagon project slowly, I have 2 partial cores that should build one engine and I'll probably get the chip to detune it a bit and run it on 87 petro, 240hp (assumed with vanagon exhaust) is suposed a wee bit too much for the stock traney. I also want to change the final drive ratio and install an LSD.

As far as the HIDs, I'm trying to keep it on a budget so I'm going for relays and bright (new) bulbs.

Philips cool blues are pretty decent, and you can find them on ebay for next to nothing, but I'm sure lots of people will post that their $60 PIAA bulbs are worth every penny, so who knows.
