Who here hates 97-98 model s14 bulbs? THey are fog light bulbs (h1's) and arent bright at all. I have so many problems with them burning out. I finally got a set of these Krypton based bulbs that work well off of http://www.groupbuycenter.com They look bad *** at night, they have a multi-colored look to them. Well just wondering who hates them?How Do you like your 97-98 bulbs?

I've had my car for six months with no head light bulb problems. I think they are alittle weak. I'm planning on upgrading the wiring harness and using h.i.d. bulbs.

do your guy's "hid" bulbs show up as white? On my 97, the razo hid bulbs show up yellowish and I'm certain its because of the housing/reflective lining in the housing that's causing the light to show up as yellow. If I have them outside the housing, the light is white/blueish.

If the housing is altering the color to yellow, how do I fix that problem?

The lightbulbs really sucks. I think all H1 bubls are like that. My friend's 99 Prelude has the same problems until he get those PIAA bulbs....man that shiet look awesome but pricy though. I went through a couple of pairs myself. I bet mine looks worst than all of you guys because the previous owner lost one of the metal clip thingy, so its pointing everywhere that I dont want it to. Well I wont be having anymore of that problem when I can order the S15 coversion from Daunttless. BTW you guys know what size is the light bulbs for the S15?
