hey Rick, thanx for the response.
I have a pair of PIAA's that look exactly like that. My only problem is, is that the bulbs are much thicker??? in terms of radius vs the stock bulbs. I have piaas all around so far so I would like to keep the bulbs consistant. do you know if those polargs are the same size as stock? if not what kind of modifications do you need to make them fit.

Please help,

I have PM turned off but my email is turned on -- I prefer that.

The Polargs are the same size/radius as stock. Remember, these are a JDM product now being imported into the US, so they are designed for Hondas and other popular Japanese makes. IMHO, the quality is higher than PIAAs.

As to what "it looks like" the only difference from stock is that the light is a more pure white, which takes getting used to.

I have the Polarg Miracle/Hyperwhite bulbs in the license plate lamp, backup lights, front parking lights, and fog lamps. The color temperature of the Polargs the same as the HIDs, so there is now color consistency in all the lights in my car, which is what I was after.

With these bulbs in your "dome" lights and in your trunk, both you and a friend can each have your own tanning booth, right?

The Polargs are whiter not brighter -- they have the same wattage ratings as stock and don't burn any hotter, so there no risk of sunburn or melting of plastic parts as is the case with some other brands.

Here are the bulb numbers:

M4 Hyper White: License plate, trunk, side markers, and parking lamps
M2 Hyper White: Back up lights and turn signals (if you want white turn signals)
M16 Hyper White: Map/interior
M60 Miracle White H1: High beam halogen ( near perfect match for the HID color)

The M4, M2, and M16 can be purchased online at two sites: http://www.autosportz.com/lighting_polargbulbs.htm
http://www.shopresponse.com/bl_hybrid.html

The M60 are available here:
http://www.gotogiga.com/shop/shop_showbook...client=GotoGiga

While you're visiting that site you might want to check out the Polarg Visual Style Bulbs mentioned in another thread. These are for the turn signal bulbs and if you've got clear corners they provide some interesting visual effects (which I personally don't care for but others may like). They are very good looking bulbs, if there is such a thing

The parking lights are in the lower outside corner of each headlamp housing.
