Default Wasup w/ headlights?

I want something brighter than stock, but not those blue blinding b*stard's (BBB's). When, other vehicles w/ them drive towards me, or come up behind me, My first urge is to................, your going to have to guess, because if "I" say, that makes it premeditated. But my new paint job (two-tone metallic w/ pinstripes) is all that keeps me from making some form of physical contact. It's an 87'.

So, you don't like BBB's but WBB's would be o.k.? (White Blinding B*stards) If so, check out www.hidfactory.com you'll be looking for something like a 6K bulb, they are the whitest. Otherwise, go with the Sylvania's, they're cool.

I put a set of the Silverstar Ultra in my truck about a month ago and really like 'em.
I do drive a lot of country roads and they really make a difference.

I was to cheap to pay $50.00 at Autozone, so I got a set on ebay for $23.99, shipped.

They are worth the $50, though, if you don't wanna wait on getting them shipped to ya.
