I'm ditching my Putcos just as soon as my order for the Crystal Vision Ultras (9145) comes in. I like the appearance of the Putcos but after two weeks of having them I'm becoming less and less pleased with their output. Going back to a halogen, but a whiter halogen, and the CVU's claim to be a 4000K output.

I'm trying to get light down and out of where the OEM HIDs have a pretty significant gap/cutoff. I'll try to post pics when they come in.

Hi.

You mean yer trying to add MORE foreground lighting? The OEM's were designed that way to avoid same for a good reason.

Correction - 9145's are 45w bulbs - me stoopid, lol

Not so much foreground, but some additional light nearer the corners, i.e. roadsides, and yes I understand that foreground will be added as a result. Have to have one with the other.

Also, 9145's are not 65w. They are 45w. You're thinking of the 9005 and 9006 bulbs that are 65w and 55w respectively. I ran 9145 in my 2006 for 3.5 years.

Those are the ones.

Keep on searching...or convince me to unload mine once my CVUs arrive. I've only had the Putco's in for 2-3 weeks.
