Answer:

use narva all weather lamps. mas bagay sa iyo yan na medyo mahina-hina na ang vista. if possible, have your headlamp wires upgraded so it can handle a higher voltage compared to stock.

stay away from the HID look. they don't work. real HIDs are better.
Answer:

and BTW, I have Magic Blank Tints, including the whole front Mirror.. mas Ok ba tlga All weather? and correct me if im wrong the The Higher the Wattage of the Bulb, the the Brighter it would be? :lasing:

an option for you is to remove your front tints and replace it with a lighter one.

yes, the higher the wattage, the brighter it will be, but i personally think it has got to do with the bulbs. kung pure white, na HID look, useless maski mataas ang wattage. but, if you try to use the yellow ones as well as the all weather, kitang kita difference.

i had the dilemna like you months before. my car is tinted super black, including the front windshield. had it installed four years ago and it suits me fine, even while driving at night. tapos, the past few months, i noticed, medyo nababawasan na visibility ko (siguro tumatanda na). thought of removing my front windshield tints and replacing it with a lighter one, but i really cannot sacrifice the privacy that dark tints provide (nakakapangulangot ako while in traffic eh...).coupled with that, my tints still look new.

so i went to the next and more expensive alternative.... installed HID's... hehehehe. i am happy now.
Answer:

also, one of my Peers here at work told me, " if i were you, i would go for the HID Bulbs" kaso, the problem is frosted nga ung Lens ko hindi xa Crystal, medyo Ok cguro xa kung Buong Assembly ang papalitan ko... Comments?
Answer:

HID bulbs aren't good with stock housings...mas maganda if you install HID bulbs with lamp housings which are made for HID bulbs.:yes:
If I were you, all weather lamps ako. :nod:

regarding sa crystal headlamp meron niyan sa evangelista :) bro, saan mo nabili yung osram hyper bulb mo? how much? kasama ba installation? naghahanap din kasi ako. thanks.
Answer:

@mackkcam sir siguro yung nakasalubong mo naka HID yun or naka 100++ watts na yung bulb niya, pag naka 100++ watts bulb ka you need to replace the stock socket to ceramic para hindi masunog yung stock socket, plastic lang kasi ito
regarding dun sa crystal headlamp , anu po kailangan niyo yung stock o crystal? (yung clear talaga) kasi po sa evangelista maraming parts ng headlights e different model regarding po sa car niyo meron naman "siguro" niyan pero di ko po guaranteed na meron pero ok naman kung try niyo diba? :)
@mcbry bro Osram Hyper 80/85 nasa 480 each H4 (hi/lo) bro kayo nalang magusap nung nagbebenta pero madali lang naman install yan e
ito number niya 09185702232 MOND pangalan niya sabihin mo nirefer ni washburn, pero definitely kaya niya install ito free of charge! mabait kausap yan!
advice ko din po na magreplace ng cermaic sockets to play safe lang painstall mo narin sa kanya yun mga 150 pesos lang po yun 2 na!
HTH :)

Answer:

mga magkanu kaya aabutin ng papalit? sabihin na nating Over wattage ung Bulbs ko for the headlight, isang palit lng ba ung plastic to Ceramic? i mean kahit mag palit pa ako ng mas mataas pa sa Currently kong i-install ngaun? ok lng xa? for example: 80/85 currently na papa-install ko ngaun, tpos sabihin na nating next year 100+ kahit di ko na palitan ung Ceramic Socket? magkanu pa paChange ng plastic na socket to Ceramic na SOkcet?
Answer:

and BTW, I have Magic Blank Tints, including the whole front Mirror.. mas Ok ba tlga All weather? and correct me if im wrong the The Higher the Wattage of the Bulb, the the Brighter it would be? :lasing: Why don't you put a lighter tint instead, for the safety of other drivers your overwattage lights might glare? Your increasing your light output may actually be doing them harm by glaring them and temporarily blinding them. This is more dangerous when people are crossing. Pedestrians cannot see because they rely on what is available; some cars have overpowering lights. Coupled with the heavy tint you might not be able to see them quicker. Finally think about this, you cannot see others as much due to the heavy tint, plus they cannot see you due to your higher wattage bulbs.
Don't forget to aim your lights properly too, sometimes it's just the little things.
Answer:

Washburn,

Sir tanong ko lang tungkol sa hyper na osram, recommended ba na to go for a higher wattage than 80/85? or stick to etong 80/85? kc mayroon ako na hid kaso sira na and i am planning to replace it with all weather. TIA

Josh
Answer:

Hi Guys,
nadala ko na sa Tech ung sa Headlight ko and ang sabi nya is Ok pa naman daw ung Bulbs ko malakas pa ung buga, medyo may defect ng konti ung isa kong Headlight sa Kanan, prefer daw nya na palitan ko muna ung Buong Assembly before chaging the Bulbs,
Btw,
they say na mas Ok pa rin daw ung Stock na wattage ng Bulbs kesa sa Overwattage? ung sa Alternator ata ung nasabi nya dun eh... Tingin nyo, Any Comments on the side Effect of using Over wattage Bulbs, for ex. is 80++ watts?
Answer:

Read all about it www.danielsternlighting.com
Going overwattage means you'll be taxing your alternator more than it was designed for. Upgrading the alternator, adding relays and higher gauge wiring usually helps.
Answer:

i agree with mbeige...one has to consider the safety aspects of making modifications in one's vehicle...safety to the owner of the car and safety to the people around
