pag nagkaron ng problem...sabihin mo lang agad...

Salamat sir Glenn. I used it last Friday night, and ayos! Sobrang improvement with my night vision. Di ko na nga ginamit yung high-beam eh, baka maka-bulag pa ako.

Ayos na ayos yang shop nyo, one-stop-shop na halos. Pero sana available na rin sa inyo yung ceramic sockets and bulbs. Napabili nga ako ng spare 4-liter Havoline Energy Synth (influence ni sir chieffy), and VIC oil filter eh. Para lang may stock ako at hand. Buti na lang lapit ako sa Kamias...

I finally had my stock headlight bulbs upgraded this morning! Kina GlennSter ko pinagawa!

I bought the Bosch ceramic sockets at Wizzards, for P290 each (sa Intense Banawe P250 each lang). And I also bought the Osram 100/80 Halogen Bulbs (stock color -- I found the all-weather to be too yellow) at Wizzards for P270 each.

Then I brought them to Glenn's place in Kamias. I bought the wire harness from them (set na, including the relays and fuse) for P550, and installation labor is P150. Workmanship is ok. Tonight will be the first time I'll be using them. I hope I don't get disappointed.

Ngayon lang ako naka-kita ng complete lineup of Castrol products. Official distributor yata si GlennSter ng Castrol eh. Nice shop, and very nice service! Many thanks to you and Ronald!

Questions pare!

ano tsikot mo?

i also like stock color(yellow to diba?) pero now parang mas gusto ko magpalit ng all weather. i had installed Philips vision plus(all weather bulbs ba ito?) previously pero feeling ko kulang paren. so now i would like to change them into higher wattage bulbs.

how much ung 100/80 na all weather(ung much more yellowish). i like them more yellowish than the stock ones. anong brand nito?

ano kapal ng wires? japan ba?








mdyo malaba kasi un ibang bulbs eh. naka sulat all weather pero parang stock colors lang. eh ano itatawag dun sa more yellowish?

[ssaloon]

i bought my philips all weather bulbs (stock wattage) at HANS TOOLS in shangrila, 180/bulb... dunno kung how much yung higher wattage, though..

Hi dieselNUBI. '97 City ang ride ko. Stock color is still white na medyo yellowish (light na light lang ang pagka-yellow). Yung all-weather ng Osram, talagang yellow ang labas. I'm sure it's really great for the rainy days, but feeling ko nakakatawa tignan at night, without rain. Parang foglights siya eh.

Yung Osram na 100/80 all weather is P450 each sa Wizzards. Yung binili ko yung stock color na 100/80, P270 lang.

Yung wires nila sir Glennster ay Japan, and makapal.

Kung talagang trip mo yellow, go for the Osram all-weather.

maraming salamat po. balitaan mo nalng sa amin from time to time ung lenses mo. kasi ang alam ko malambot lang ang headlight lenses ng city eh. =)

[wrecker]

singit lang...

balak ko kasing mag pa upgrade din ng headlights and use white bulbs, naka all-weather ako na fogs.

do you guys think that the fogs will compensate for the low visibility of whites during rains and fog?

[Ungas]

Your white bulbs will be useless when the yellow aux lights are on.

[GlennSter]

mga ser note lang po sa all weather bulbs....

given the same rating as the normal bulbs...MAS MAHINA PO ANG LIWANAG NG ALL WEATHER. kaya wag po kayo magtaka kung mas mahina ang 90watts na AW sa 90 watts na STOCK.

pero pagdating naman po sa ulan ay ibang usapan na yan....ehrherhehr

ser paolo...salamat at ok naman...at napabili pa kayo ng vic.hingi kayo ng discount sa mga piyesa...pero pag langis wala na yata talagang bawas kasi maliit lang po ang tubo jan..herhehrehr

halos kumpleto po kami sa vic kaya ok naman yan.

see you next time!!!

[revoGSX]

question po... pati ba yung OEM headlight plug eh gagamitin sa pag re-wire? kasi kung magkaproblema sa electrical na hindi naman related sa headlight eh kelangan i-balik sa casa ..kaso baka makita sa casa na iba ang wiring ng headlight at sabihin eh void na warranty..

meron bang option na ma-ibalik yung original OEM setup ng headlight pag kailangan?

nasa engine bay po ba lahat ng new bigger wires and relays para sa headlight upgrade and mga 2 or 3 ordinary wires going to dashboard just get the headlight switch for hi and low beam?

thanks..

[paolorenzo]

revoGSX, yes, ginagamit yung original socket. Dun nila tina-tap ang switch. All the upgraded wires, relays, fuse (entire harness set) ay nasa engine bay. I'll be very very difficult to remove the setup, once installed, but it's possible I guess.

Nahihinaan ka pa ba sa headlights ng Revo mo??? The main reason why I upgraded my City, was because of the great headlights of the Revo!

[revoGSX]

paolorenzo,

hindi naman ako nahihinaan sa headlight ng revo.. sobrang okay nga yung foglight dahil pati yung side ng road eh maliwanag ..

parang gusto ko subukan yung mas maliwanag na mga bulbs dahil every friday night eh umuuwi kami sa province (malapit sa puerto asul) .. at nabla-blind ako sa mga incoming vehicle pag hindi maganda ang setup ng lo-beam nila lalo na mga bus... kaya ang nangyayari eh kelangan ko mag drop ng speed to below 60kph at baka meron mga tao or bike or ano mang mabagal sa daan na hindi mo na makita dahil nasisilaw ka na sa mga incoming vehicle

meron din naman ako alam sa electrical kaya kung kelangan ibalik sa casa eh tanggalin ko lang yung new wires and relays.. tapos balutan ng electrical tape eh ayos na.. hehe..

pero baka mag-add ako ng bullbar na lang or yung ginawa nila Otep na sa butas ng plate number naglagay sila ng angle bar para sa extra foglight ... kaso plastic bumber ng revo at baka nakakatawang tignan pag mali ang lagay ..

[Ungas]

Wag po kayong maglalagay ng aux lights sa plastic bumper, sa lakas ng vibrations nito, baka mahilo lang kayo. Or if you could reinforce a bracket underneath it to strengthen the bumper.

glennster, if I replace headlamps and iba na yung bulb type, dati low-9006 & hi-9005, yung new is low-H4 and hi- H1. Kaya nyo ba irewire?
Di ba with a 2-bulb configuration, may tig isang purpose talaga. low only serves as low talaga so when you switch to high e the low beam stays at low, mag-on lang yung high. Kaya ba pag high beam mo e the H4low goes into high as well? Sa wiring lang dapat yun right?


share ko lang, a typical wiring upgrade should more or less look like this...

dito ko yan nakuha

[paolorenzo]

ayus yan icon ah. Yung harness nila Glenn is very much like that. Although hindi ganyan kaganda at kalinis (medyo crude kasi thick japan wires, bundled together with lots of electric tape), ok yung sa kanila because it has a fuse as well.

Depends on each vehicle make and electrical configurations. Not all vehicles have the same light output.

Sample1: Dim, H4 low beam only. Bright, H4 high beam and H1 on.
Sample2: Dim, H4 low beam only. Bright, H4 says low beam and H1 on.
Sample3: Dim, H4 high beam only. Bright, H4 still on high beam and H1 on.

di ba nakakasilaw sa oncoming cars ang sample3?

I like sample 2, siguradong maliwanag yan pag bright hehe. pero sabi kasi sa akin yung wiring that comes with the headlamps would have a setup pareha ng sample 1.

ayaw ko nga sana yung babalutin ng electric tape, lumalagkit kasi yon. kung pwede sanang shrink tubing like yung sa pic. or yung pareha nung binebenta sa sm yung paikot ikot, di ko madescribe, haha.

i think may fuse din yung sa pic, yung white sa upper part na papuntang battery positive.

[woulfe27]

Glennster, where exactly in kamias is your shop? please specify prominent landamarks, di ko kase masyado kabisado yang area na yan. papaupgrade din kase ko ng headlamps. Thanks, bro

Kadalasan ko nakikita yung sample 3 sa mga delivery trucks, which has sealed beams. Bihira po sa maliliit na sasakyan. Yung wiring diagram ng Starex ang best sample para sa #2.

Meron pong nabibiling flexible hose na 1/4 or 3/16 inch ang butas, kadalasang ginagamit sa electricals ng sound system setups. Mahaba-habang trabaho kung gagamit kayo ng shrink tubings.

[revoGSX]

icon, ayos yung picture... ganyan yung gusto kong setup.. wala ng papuntang wire sa loob nga dashboard dahil kinuha nya ang hi at lo-beam from the OEM plug...
