Re: kinda lights do you have?

Any body know if these lights are worth a crap? linkydu
They seem pretty cheap so I assume its crap, I am looking to go 'brighter' or something like that. Let me know what works. Thanks

Yep, it's crap. Do a search for Philips Vision Plus

Re: kinda lights do you have?

BAWAHAHAHAHHA

I bought a set of them just to be a joker. Then I put them in one day and checked them out. Man.. total crapola. Sure.. they 'looked' brighter at first glace but when you *really* looked at them I noticed that they were actually dimmer due to all that blue dye crap on them (and they smoked like crazy when I turned the lights on).

And because I was in a I-don't-give-a-ratz-azz mood I actually went riding with them, at night (we don't have street lights around here). Man.. the suck.

Did I mention that they suck?

I have them on my workbench as a conversation piece and paperweight. If you buy them for that you might get your money's worth.

Re: kinda lights do you have?

go to hardracing.com and get a set....man what a difference i saw. *Stock calls for 55W and these are 80's. *I've been runnin that for a while now with no problems....just don't leave your bike on without it running for a long time *

Ask for Shawn and tell him Johnny from Charlotte recommended you.

Re: kinda lights do you have?

i have the phillips h7 vision plus bulbs..... they are way brighter than stock, and they have a much sharper 'crystal white' look to them.
