Default What is the best way to get White Drls/Headlights

Is there a simple bulb change or do i need to convert to hids? Just after a white color light I hate the yellow.

Well if you just want to keep the stock system and upgrade the bulb to a more white bulb.... I would say just some SilverStars. I did the swap right after getting my rig and it was a big improvement.....

This is where I will contradict myself.
Though they were worth it by improving the light, i wish i would have spend probably about the same amout of money on HIDs.

I did SilverStars on my Tundra and they were OK.
I did HIDs and they were amazing.

Why didnt I just do HIDs on my H2.... ummm a lapse in judgement, or wasnt thinking, or just a plan ole brain fart.
Anyways, I am getting ready to switch to HIDs

I was under the impression that Hids were fairly expensive

Nah!
I have seen plenty out there that were, but after going with a set from Ebay that were around 50 bucks for my Tundra they were great.
Many of them offer the lifetime replacement or long warranties and such. I know the ones I had did and after a few years one went out and they would have replaced them if I still had my receipt.
So I ordered another set.... still about 50 bucks. They showed up and there was an issue with one of the ballasts..... they sent me a whole new set and didnt ask for the other back.
And these purchases were from two different vendors.

The other issue I had with the SS lights was they burned out alot due to heat. They burn hot. Havent had that issue with them on my H2, but one the Tundra I was replacing those things every 2-3 months

I order all my HID's from ddmtuning.com and have had great success. I've installed over 100 kits in various vehicles and never had an issue with them. I've been running a DDM kit in my rig since I've had it and not one problem.

Be sure you buy the optional relay harness-dual in, dual out.
