Hi i got an 01 Xterra and i was wondering what type of bulbs for your headlights you guys are using?

I`m looking for something better than OEM..Also HID`s are out of the question been that we don`t have projectors the light output will be all over the place(horrible IMO). Ohh btw i definetly don`t want those stupid blue bulbs than during the daytime make your headlights look bluish(sorry but i`m anal like that)...i really hate that rice look...so once again any ideas?

sorry for been a Pita but....some of you know how it is....lol

i just went on piaa's website
they have a new bulb, the "intense white" looks like a good bet, has a white cap instead of blue, you should be fine, and at 4100k, its the whitest bulb they gotz
i may even replace minez withthem
didnt see them on ebay though, only piaa's site

i use silverstar ultra's they are white and put out a lot of light.... if your headlights are yellow or clouded then you need to clean them before you can get a decent amount of light.... when i did mine it was literally like day and night......
