Can't See Bad Headlights

[Church]

I can't see with my stock headlights. I've heard the projectors are even worse. Anyone got suggestions on how i could make my headlights brighter or be able to see better?

stock lights should be pretty good -- ya could always aim yer hi-beams down so you can leave them on all the time with out blinding other drivers

Buy some wide angle foglights. On my 3g, the headlights blow just like you've said, but it has wide angle fogs. just adjust them so they point up a little more and you'll see a HUGE difference

trust me, i did when i went racing on angeles crest at 70 mph

Maybe my eyes are'nt working right. Well are there some better bulbs perhaps i can get that wont give my car the "come pull me over my headlights are blue" look? Anything? I swear there has to be something wrong with my lights if you say there pretty good stock. I dont know what it could be. They go on. I could try rewiring with some heavier gauge wire but i hate messing with wires.

You could try a higher wattage bulb, but be careful with melting your harness.

church you dont need to rewire, just angle your headlights better and more evenly , i had the same probolem, it works great now, park your car in front of a garage door a focus on a line on your garage door and just even them out and make shure there pointed down good enough......

Ya align your headlights like Airpoppoff said, also get some Mothers Aluminum Polish Mag Finish. It ill make them look soo good. DSMtalk has some links with that stuff I know i found sucess with it.

My stock headlights were garbage, they became really yellow and i couldnt see anything out of them, just recently i bought some stock headlamp assembly replacements for under $400, at the dealership there are around $600...i also put halogen bulbs in the headlamp assemly and now i see crystal clear.

Ya the main problem with that mag fininsh is you have to keep putting it on. If you have the cash go with the headlights. If your not willing to spend the money go for aluminum polish.

I had the same problem. I used the mag polish for a while. I had to apply it every two weeks or so. I went ahead and sanded them with 2000 and buffed them out. It's been about 1 1/2 months and they still look brand new.

 

[steckelberg]

Good thinking, im going to have to try that

 

[Airpoppoff]
