Headlight help

[97RioRedV6]

So since I'm tackling all the little issues at once, I want to address the lighting issue. About 2.5 years ago, I replaced my broken, faded, cracked stockers with a cheap pair of black housings (clear lenses). I've went through three different sets of headlight bulbs because I wasn't satisfied with any of them. I'm currently running a set of sylvania's that couldn't light a pitch black path and quite frankly, I find it a little dangerous. My eyesight isn't perfect, so I need something brighter. Would a set of hid's solve my problem? There was another member mentioning headlights being fluted. Can anyone elaborate on that?

I have the same problem and your best bet is to go with HIDs putting diffrent bulbs in won't help. Our just get go back to the stocker headlights

I don't particularly want to go back to the crystals. So if I can keep from it with an hid it'd work out perfect.

HID, if you have a nice set of lenses/housing.. You will not be disappointed. I went with the 5k and I am very satisfied with them.

i went with HIDs. my kit was a VVME kit and it was incredibly easy to install.

thats what i suggest.

I have a really nice pair of lenses. So I really don't like the stocker route.

If money were no option and they were going on something other than a stock v6 DD, yes. Nothing looks cleaner than a properly done retrofit.

I ordered my kit today. Just a simple 6000k kit. Nothing too blue, but still a bright white. Cops around here ride on a pretty high horse so the really blue 8-10k could be a harassment issue that I don't want to deal with.
