After playing with this this types of bulbs (and bought three sets!!!)
I now use 100 watts bulbs. Much brighter light

My car has relays however, if if i want to uprate my light further I'm going to raplace the wiring using Demon Tweeks high quality wires

Kris TD,

I'm Portuguese and live in Portugal. That's the reason I use Demon Tweeks

Thanks for the link mate !! good price and certainly good postage costs compared to some off the others !!

think I will go for the blue tint ones like yourself, is there a deffinate blue tint to them or is it very slight ??

Thanks also to all who helped me out with your info, has been very helpful !!

cheers
