New light bulbs for Honda Accord '00
 
I have an 2000 accord EX and want to change the light bulbs as they arn't
that bright.
What would be a good replacement bulbs as I don't want to spend too much by
changing light assembly or anything like that.

Some one told me that i should replace my 2006/2005 51W lamps with something
like 2006/2005 80W, dont know where I can find higher wattage lamps?

Thanks,

-B

You should bear in mind that 50/55 watt bulbs are the maximum allowed by
law.

You should also bear in mind that there are some people who think that
any extra and brighter lights on the front of any vehicle means that the
driver of such car is a blind, inconsiderate, idiot.

Well, you could install fog lights. They would help in foggy or rainy
conditions.

You could also, install driving lights, they would help on clear nights.

On a Ford Ranger I had years ago, I had both types of lights installed. They
were a large improvement over the headlights alone.

No matter what you install and use, please remember to turn them off when
approaching oncoming traffic.

What ever you decide to add,just don't use any extra light ANY TIME you
can see another car. This goes for divided highways, and traffic you are
following, no matter how far behind. If you can see them, they damned
sure they can see you. bob
