Smile Headlamps.

Hi Chaps,

I was just reading the posts about issues with the silvia headlamps at night. As far as HID's are concerned, I wouldn't bother. Oh yes! They are nice to have and to a degree 'fashionable' but also expensive, and as Martin said, They do glare drivers at night, I know, I'm one of them.

Don't for one minute think I have something against them, I don't. What I could recommend, is a set of replacement filaments (bulbs) from ring, the filaments are H4 designs and come in at £17 or there-abouts, they offer increased light output Approx 30% which is crisper than the originals but at the same power and they fit straight in as the originals so no fannying around trying to get them to work properly.

You will be able to purchase these filaments at any good auto store. Why not ask.

I hope this will be of some assistance to anyone out there in silvia land that needs a quick filament replacement / upgrade that works well and is good value for money.

Best regards,

john
