Default Highbeam bulbs

The oem highbeam bulbs are a 3000k H1S correct? Looks like they cost around $6 from majestic honda...

I was looking at these http://www.amazon.com/PIAA-11455-55-Watt-X...f=pd_sbs_auto_7

thoughts and opinions?

I have those in yellow. I put them on a month after I bought the car new and have had no problems since.

I know our Highs are really bright, but maybe alittle more white to it? Then again if the difference is not gonna be noticable, then I wont really dig into it.

You can't go wrong with PIAA--quality bulbs but pricey. I have the Catz (another Japanese bulb company) H1 bulbs and am happy with them. I think I paid like $20. They're not as bright as the PIAAs but brighter than stock.

Im using Nokya halogen bulbs. I just bought yellow because I wanted the highbeam area to have a light yellow tint to it. I hardly use my highbeams anyhow.

But I think any brand is fine, since highbeams shouldn't be on when driving.

But yes, they are H1.
