January 11th, 2006 05:07 PM #1I want to replace the headlight bulbs on my Suzuki Esteem to really powerful halogens, not the white or HID types. What's the maximum for replacement bulbs in stock headlamps? I found OSRAM 100 / 180 but are there more powerful choices available? I don't want to go overboard and need to replace my alternator or something just to run the headlights. I just want the brightest lights I can get, best bang for the buck kung baga, and still retain much of the original wiring and setup. I already had my headlamps cleaned at Big Bert's pero kulang pa rin hehehe

With the stock wirings and sockets, you can only use the stock bulb wattage specified. If you'll go higher wattage, you'll change wires, add relays and change sockets to ceremic ones (mga 1.3-1.5K at electrical shops like Wizzard and Reys... guaranteed pulido gawa over the cheaper shops in Banawe).
Avoid those "super whites" and blue bulbs as they don't work well in poor weather at night. Stick to the stock white or all-weather colored bulbs.
There are several topics on this as well which you can dig up through a search...

January 12th, 2006 10:45 AM #9I realize that I will have to beef up the wiring and use ceramic sockets. Yes Wizzard is an excellent shop. I've been going there for years and ang galing talaga ng work nila.
My lenses are glass. Will they still darken if I use more powerful bulbs? And are there bulbs available that are capable of more than 100 watts on low beam?
