    Yes it is not necessary to replace the wiring maybe the sockets models 96 and above can handle high voltage H4 Bulbs 90/100 max not more than if more than 90/100 you need the ceramic sockets

    if you're planning to improve your halogen lighting, an upgrade will help you a lot but be sure to include the sockets (into ceramic type)

    In my case, I use the Osram silverstar, it only comes in stock wattage of 55/60W but since it throws 50% more I didn’t have to upgrade my wires and sockets. I also have the Bosch all season 80/85W being used during rainy season.
    A pair of Osram Silverstar costs less than 1K now compared to 500* 2 years ago. Bosch all season is at P400*.


    You may seach for other Halogen discussions here for added choices.
    aside from halogens, you may also get some tips on the types based on its effectiveness.

    I would recommend Philips X-treme, 55/60watts din so no need to upgrade the socket and wiring. check this thread: http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showt...79#post1039079

    +1 on Osram Silverstars. I still use stock 60/55W wattage and I have no complaints whatsoever.

    I also tried Osram's All-Weather bulbs. They're a little weaker than the Silverstars and give off a distinct yellow-tinged light. Not bad either

    not sure if this is the right thread, didn't want to create a new topic kasi. my accord has 4 bulbs, 2 HB3 and 2 HB4. if i want to connect a relay, do i need to get 4 relays or will 2 be enough? 1 relay for 1 low and 1 high beam bulb each. i'm used to H4 bulbs kasi in my old box-type lancer.

    thanks

    I hear some people on other forums are selling Osram Nightbreaker bulbs now, too. Those should cost you PhP525 a piece. I'll try to get a pair of those...
