    anybody happen to have pics of 55w and 35w to compare diff in brightness? no point in spending more $$ and risk popping fuses all the time if the benefits arent that great, right?

        Here's a comparison I found on e46fanatics



        My 45k in my odyssey are very bright already if you go any brighter you'll just be attracting the attention of the police.

        All non-factory HID are not DOT approved so I'd rather not get pulled over myself.

            you aren't going to pop any fuses with 55w unless your electrical system is screwy

            never had a problem with police or anyone being blinded by me either. proper aiming FTW.

              Congrats on the install, but unless you car was parked at an incline, you need to aim those suckers downward.

                  therefore, their value is much greater.

                    Shameless plug for my DIY as a reference for those who have either Euro or US ellipsoid headlights... procedure is the same, only difference being H1 fitment or 9005/9006 fitment bulbs.
