I was just wondering, with all this talk of upgraded headlights, if anyone
has ever tried HIR bulbs in either the stock housings or done a retrofit
into Euro Housings?
The bulbs are quite a bit nicer than standard halogens, with comparisons
being about 1000 Milicandles vs 1800milicandles, and 1750 milicandles vs
2300, or so.
Either way, HIR bulbs are made by Toshiba and are technically 9011/9012, but
fit with minor filing in 9006/9005 retainers. I've put some on the Miata,
work wonderfully, and am currently on a trip of putting them on everything
under the sun. I may pop open my broken E-code and figure out how to throw
them in.
Anyway, research is availiable, here's a site with some info, but they do
sell the things, so take it with a grain of salt.
