Re: Xenon H1/H3/H4 source?

[sargent@novagate.com]

The PIAA "Super White" bulbs I have in my euros are the closest thing I've
seen to true HID from a standard bulb. They are whiter, and there is no
color separation as there is with the various 'blue bulbs' (which are of
questionable aesthetic value, and negative practical value). The light is
whiter and brighter than std. halogen, but not nearly as good as true HID.
They do make a higher wattage bulb that may be of additional value, as well
( I use stock wattage).

I got them from an off-road supplier called "Overlander" - ask for Jeff. 
They are probably available through any PIAA dealer, though.
