    I got some Sylvania Silverstar's and they're perfect for what you're asking. They're super bright, (the high beams are retardedly bright,) but I might go to some just plain white HID's since they seem to be just THAT much more brighter.

    Check out the HID thread for what people are running:

    school me on HIDs/lights

    My iX initially came with sealed beams and I upgraded to US ellipsoids sometime in the last year.

    I know that with ellipsoids, unlike the sealed beams, you can swap out bulbs for different brightnesses etc etc, but I have absolutely no clue where to go from here.

    Do I need to get an HID kit or do I just need to get different bulbs, or are those one and the same?

    I'm looking for brighter lights, I don't want to have those blueish and whiteish looking headlights because I think they'd look tacky on an E30. Modern lighting on a 20 year old car. I want something that keeps the nostalgia of the classic E30, but gives a brighter light.

    School me?
