    Default Vs head lights

    Hey guys my headlights are really dim and was thinking of either doing the foglight mod or getting an ss bumper or installing H.I.Ds. Has anyone ever installed H.I.Ds into a vs before is it easy???

    Hid are illegal not to mention the beam spread will be terrible. you can get away with Hid's in projector style headlights

    phillips crystal vison are a good standard bulb, also have heard good reports on the 50+ bulbs

    Dude if you want a VS SS front and rear bar with side skirts set up (genuine) one of the Vic boys is selling a full plastic kit right now for around $300.

    Check out the for sale section. That way you can throw some foggies in. Plus the VS ute's look MINT with SS kits.

    It's very hard to find the genuine kits these days.

    i highly recommend philips +80% upgrade globes. i used them before my hid's, and I've fitted them to a mates car a few weeks ago, and he's still telling me how good they are. around the $70-$80 mark retail i think.

    The philips globes are only about $50 delivered to your door. The philips plus 80% x-treme power are brilliant bulbs. I had on my VS S Pack which I recently have just sold. I now have a VZ Calais with H11 and H9 globes, so the upgrade I have done so far is the Osram plus 90% Nightbreaker in my low beam and H3 Osram in my foglights. These are great also, but go the philips. The low beam on the VS Comm is H4, and then on the high beam go the Osram H3. Website is below.

    I have had 4 sets of lights delivered to my door in the last month. I couldn't do all in one hit as if you do an order a week apart, for every order over $30 aust dollars, you get free philips park/number plate lights. I have had 2 sets for my car, and another 2 sets of H11 for my mates VZ monaro and VY Adventra. Delivery takes only a week and thats to me which im 2.5 hours South of Perth WA.

    PowerBulbs - Car Bulbs, Headlight Bulbs, Xenon Bulbs from Philips and Osram, including Philips Xtreme Power and Osram NightBreaker globes.
