i know i know, angel lights and night time do not mix and i have had to find out the hard way, but money is very tight and changing my headlights are last on my list. so anyway on to the question, what bulbs shall i upgrade to, to get the best result? i have read threw a few threads and saw ultra phillips x treme power bulbs might be a good choice???
if not what are, what are the few plp who still have these headlights using?

Save the money your gonna waste on better bulbs for crappy angel eyes & just put it towards a pair of standard crystal headlamps.

i know but i'm still a fan of these i love the way they look, and to be honest i dont drive at night alot plus we have a second car so any long trips at night will be done in that. standard headlamps wont go with my car either

stick some HIDs in and just change them over come MOT time. They wont be super blinding to road users as you will have them in projectors. Also they run colder then 100% bright things which might damage your halo rings

Angel eyes only ever look good as your crusing round McDonalds car park, racing round town or sitting outside the school waiting to pick up your under age girlfriend as she finishes detention.
