#1: In need of your expert opinions please Author: Jordan_xsi, Location: Ipswich PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:43 pm

Right my car looks like this at the minute:
 


My Wolfraces that are on in the picture are being sold so im putting my nims back on. I also have halo headlights on there which look lovely but i'm not too impressed with how well they light up the road at night so i want to get some different ones. The ideas im toying with are graphite morrettes and nims the same colour, black nims with black masked valeos or black morrettes to match my black back lights. so what do people think.....
1.Graphite nims & morrettes
2.Gloss black nimns & morrettes
3.Gloss black nims & black masked valeos
4.Anything else anyone can think of please make suggestions!

Presumably morettes will give the same output as angels? It's the same bulb layout isn't it?

morrettes arent very good for light output either, get masked valeos if its light your after.

For a comparison between genuine Morettes and Halos:

Halos
Genuine Morettes

No way morettes produce better output than standard crystals. Iv had 2 sets of crystal types (firedance+black) and now my morettes. The standards are way better

#22: Re: In need of your expert opinions please Author: Jordan_xsi, Location: Ipswich PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:16 pm

Halos are no where near as bad as he makes out. his must have been really cheap shi**y ones Neutral my halos are perfectly visable and the build quality isn't as bad as he makes them sound at all! Agreed there not great at night to drive with but they do look awesome!

Fair enough. DJ, did you steal your colour scheme from that guy Razz

#24: Re: In need of your expert opinions please Author: DJ-, Location: UK PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:21 pm

Lol no I remember that guy from when he was on here. I think firedance looks better colour coded Razz

Just thought I'd mention, I thought the light output from my crystals is pretty average to poor. May get some X-tremes or night breakers for my morettes...

#31: Re: In need of your expert opinions please Author: adzar, Location: UK PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:52 pm

This is a bit of a n00by question, I'm sure, but say I bought a 'set' of night breakers, which bulbs would that actually be for on a set of morettes?

EDIT: sorry for the hi-jack jordan

#32: Re: In need of your expert opinions please Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventry PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:54 pm

better off on dipped as they get used the most if your only getting one set. best option is to do dipped and high and then you'll notice a massive difference.

#33: Re: In need of your expert opinions please Author: DJ-, Location: UK PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:55 pm

the middle optics( h7 bulbs)

#34: Re: In need of your expert opinions please Author: adzar, Location: UK PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:57 pm

cheers. So I'd require 2 sets of H7s to do dipped and main?
