ano ba pinaka ok na all weather bulb (narva, osram, flosser, etc.)?
if possible yung 80/85w lang para no need to change socket and wirings.
for altis pala. thanks.

afaik osram ka na, kaya lang kesa mag 80/85 (P380*) ka 80/100 (P400*)na.
meron ako niyan gamit ko ngayong rainy season

no socket/wiring upgrade basta
wag masyado babad sa hi when needed.

nakakatakot kasi pag 80/100 if walang palit socket and wirings. kaya to be safe mas prefer ko for the meantime yung 80/85 na all weather. saan po meron osram na P380, sir? kasama na ba dyan installation?

saan po banda yung Warren? ito po ba sa binondo banda? directions naman please going there. thanks.

mcbry: sa warren itong prices na to without installation. madali lang naman plug and play ika nga.

yep, going to divisoria, naka-cross ang benavidez st. sa c.m. recto. kaliwa ka sa benavidez st. nasa left side ang warren. few meters lang fr. c.m. recto corner.

xto: bro, thanks sa direction. i called warren at 380 (80/85w) nga daw osram nila. another question, pag sinabi ba na yung bulb gagamitin for headlight is hb4/hb3 (hi/low) ibig sabihin 2 separate bulbs yan? sensya na hindi kasi ako familiar sa mga bulbs na to.

Tinatanung lang siguro nila kung anong type. H4 ang para sa headlight like sa Altis mo.
Single bulb lang ito at high and low na.

H3 is mas maliit. Ito yung normally na pang aux lamp like sa crosswind fog lamp ko.
Single bulb at 1 setting lang.

thanks bro, H4 nga siguro yung para sa altis. yung H3 naman para sa foglamps. hopefully, makadaan ako dun sa warren para makabili ng osram all weather 80/85w.

bro,

altis rin ako.. bulbs yata ng zz natin ay hb4 for low beam and hb3 for high beam..

currently using zoomlite superwhites 80/100 with narva relay, socket, and wiring.

if you have the old altis i think it is h4.

hope this helps.

hindi din ako familiar sa mga socket, wiring upgrades at mga h3/h4 na terms pero ano pwede para sa altis lovelife headlight ko na osram or philips? basta stock lang yung ilaw ayaw ko ng mga puti or bluish light. pati yung mga wattage nun (yun ba yung mga 80
/85w na sinasabi niyo?) di ko rin kabisado kaya pakiinform nalang ako. tia

nice cars ah.
anyway, if you want stock color lang, get GE or Osram.
Im not sure if there is a H4 size for the GE but i remember i saw HB3 and HB4 sockets in True Value (shang).
i currently inquired at Roadstar (the fort) about the OsramSilverstar H4 (55/60), they told me it would be 550/pc with install medyo pricey kasi 450/pc un pagbulk.
til now hindi ko pinapagawa.

Yung wattage naman 80/100, mine is 80watts low beam for my hb4 bulbs, 100 watts high beam for my HB3 bulbs sa altis.

H4 socket type has both low beam and high beam in one bulb. 55/60 means 55watts for lo beam and 60watts for hi beam.

hope i filled up your question.

**sockets and wiring upgrades (with relays)

For Sockets:
If you're using high wattage bulbs like 80 and above, you should change to heavy duty sockets or get those ceramic sockets cause the bulbs would melt your stock socket.
"Ceramic Sockets
HB4- 250 per pair
HB3- 250 per pair
H1- 150 per pair
H7- 180 per pair
H3- 150 per pair
H4- 150 per pair" i got this from the for sales section of altisclubzz.com

For wiring upgrades (with relays):
Higher wattage means more power and more heat. (law of thermodynamics)
So getting a wiring upgrade would be advisable, because high wattage bulbs use higher current(i think), therefore producing more heat through your wires, which is complemented by fatter wires found in wiring upgrades. some people may say that wiring upgrades also use the same thickness/thinness of wires, but no, the wires that comes with the upgrades have fatter metal (wire) part rather than its rubber covering, as other misleading wires would have really fat rubber covering and thin metal (wire) part. [] Relays naman, i dont know how to explain, sabi lang sa akin na mas maganda ung tapon ng ilaw, and it also came with the wiring upgrade.

sana makatulong.
