Small round lights, what bulb?

Are these the same ones you're talking about?

yep, but then you need the H4 headlight bulbs to match

I changed mine out to a set of 55W small Pilot driving lights. And NO, nothing melted, just need to change out the headlight fuse under the hood from 10A to 15A since it pulls a little more current. I can't find the thread but do a search and it has detailed instructions. Got the Pilot light at Autozone for like $20 and a couple of 4" rubber hose coupling thingy & hose clamps from Lowes for $10 (I think). Whole project costed me $30 and a few hours.

Blast from the past thread, but....

Looking to replace almost all my lights/bulbs. Been looking into the PIAA W2 18W Xtreme Whites for the small, round, worthless lights in the front cladding. Dont want to mod any aftermarket lights in so a bulb should be fine. Came across some here....

Anyone that is using them notice any heat issues with outlying plastic and do they appear more blue than white? I dont want any melting and want to avoid Johnny On The Spot cause he doesnt like blue AT ALL in this area.

Also, anyone tried any sort of LED bulbs or conversions for these lights?

I thought the headlight bulbs were 9003 instead of H4?

Thanks,

The PIAA's are nice, that's what I have had for a long time now, still going strong. The only thing is (for me at least) they fit in there pretty loosely, and occasionally I find one isn't on, so I have to get in there and press it in more firmly and then it's on again. Not something that happens much (twice, in a couple of years' time I guess), though. As loose as it is (both times it was the right side), it is amazing it doesn't happen constantly, especially with the stiff ride and some of the places I take it. Really I'd expect it to fall out of socket with the first little bump, but they don't. Not sure if it's just my VX, or my particular bulbs I got or what.

WormGod, I've had no heat issues with the plastic, and they are a little on the blue side, but just a tad. Really don't think it would be a problem. It's not to the point that it is going to draw any attention when you pass by Johnny. Especially having the headlights on with them as you probably usually will. Then they look pretty white. It's when they're on by themselves that you can see the blue hue, and even then, it's not so much when you're looking directly at them - it's when you're looking at what they are illuminating that you notice the blue. My headlights drown out that effect.

I have the Sylvania SilverStars in the headlights. Not an exact match maybe, but that's really splitting hairs in my case because it's close enough to not look wrong in my opinion.

MrcIn1, the SilverStar part number was 9003ST.
