Any Too Bright Lights?

Hello all, I just picked up a '04 MCS with the Auxiliary lights, Coopers are way too fun! anywho, my question is are ther any bulbs, or ballasts that can make them really really bright, like the end is near bright , OR are there any bulbs that will make them match the White/blue light of my Xenons?

And, if you want to comment on Dinan VS Alta intake systems, feel free

Thanks All!

Yes, just replace your bulbs with Sylvania Silverstar H3 ST bulbs for your driving lights. These can be had from your dealer parts dept. They will match your Zenons. Part #63 17 0 399 680 and they are about $20 each and very easy to install---

Can't offer any input on the lights, but +1 on the ALTA CAI. Healthy power gain, amazing sound and looks great under the hood.

+1 on the Alta as well. Gains are solid, and the sound is to die for!

Got the bulbs

New bulbs went in, they look good But would still like to set things on fire with my hi beams, maybe 4 piaa 510's will do it!
Just out of curiosity, why no love for Dinan, They have been tuning beemers forever, and dont negate any warrany, and cost about what an alta would.
