Personally, I plan on going with four 9011's whenever I get around to it...


In general, you can get better low beam performance by using high-beam (9005) bulbs in place of your low-beam bulbs (9006). All it takes is a little filing/grinding.

Xenarcs are very nice...

Sylvania Xenarc (http://www.sylvania.com/xenarc/x2020.htm)

unfortunately you both have 04's and I don't think they are available yet. You could try contacting Sylvania and see what their plans are if you are interested.

Good luck,
Michael

I have Denali headlights with HID's already, I am looking for a good high beam bulb.

emerick115,

Sorry I didn't read through your sig. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Ermm.gif However with HIDs when do you need high beams? If you happen to have modded to have all four on highbeams that would make sense. I've had good luck with the Silverstar high beams but don't use them much to relate bulb life.

Enjoy,
Michael
