Stock v/s Sylvania HV's Headlight bulbs
Hi all!
Has anyone had a chance to compare the stock (9003) bulbs in ~98 Civics vs. the Sylvania 9003HV or any other "upgrade" bulb? Any preference/suggestions? Thanks all! TB |
Re: Stock v/s Sylvania HV's Headlight bulbs
If you need more light then what is provided by the factory, you might
think about not driving. If it's a fashion statement, pick something that doesn't irritate other drivers.

Re: Stock v/s Sylvania HV's Headlight bulbs
I have replaced the stock 9003 bulbs on my '94 Civic with Sylvania
9003XV and did see some improvement. Halogen bulbs get dimmer with age, so I do not know how much of the improvement was due to the old age of the stock bulbs and how much was due to the 9003XV being better than standard 9003. I later added Xenarc 1010 auxiliary HID low beams to the car and that was a dramatic improvement. These are true HID lights and they are DOT compliant. Aimed correctly they are quite civilized. One alternative to 9003 bulbs are the Osram Silverstar H4 bulbs. These are not the same bulbs as the Sylvania Silverstars. The Osram H4 ST is 50% brighter than standard H4 bulbs but are still 60W/55W bulbs. H4 is the European equivalent to the 9003 bulb and is not tested for DOT compliance.

Just remember that most people are nice and you should ignor those that love to hurt your feelings and feelings of other people. I recently suggested to several people that has serious problems with their Honda vehicles to take their vehicles to professional mechanics since it was obvious from their posts that they had never before ever done any mechanical work on any car. Some stupid person posted that I should have told those people how to fix their cars instead of suggesting the hiring of professional mechanics to fix their cars. He was the only person that complained and I believe everyone else realized that my advice was great. I paid more attention to the intelligent people than stupid people llike the person that told you to stop driving. |

Re: Stock v/s Sylvania HV's Headlight bulbs
I also am intersted in upgrading my headlights on my '01 Accord. I
have had night vision problems for years and have, in the past, upgraded my sealed beam headlights to bulb type "Z" beams. The lights that blind me as I drive are not on Hondas, they are on full size pickups and full size SUVs.

There is nothing >legal< available that will improve the performance of 9005 high beam bulbs. The extra cost extreme white sort of bulbs will actually supply fewer lumens and have a shorter life expectancy (though they do look "cool"). http://www.overboost.com/story.asp?id=102 There is additional output available for the 9006 Xtravision, but 1030 lumens as opposed to the standard 1000 lumens is not worth the drive to Pep Boys. http://lighting.mbz.org/tech/bulbs/b...ulb_types.html |
