Headlight & foglight question
When I bought my SS, I shortly after had one of my HID bulbs burn out. Then I had an LED burn out, then a fog light. I have HID fogs, and halo HID projector headlights. I wanna replace the headlights with something new. What's the brightest type of headlight? Like, angel eyes, retros, etc. Also, what are the brightest or best looking fog light bulbs?

Best looking is really your own opinion. The brightest bulbs are hid 4300 or 5k. Those are the two whitest lights. If u want a little blue then 6k is what u want. Anything above or below those serve no purpose. Imo retros look the best but arent worth the money to be. A set of projector headlights with halos will do fine

HIDs are bulbs that come in all shapes and sizes and also temperatures. You can search on google images different color temperatures and see what u like best. I personally run 6k in my headlights and fog lights because they are close to an aqua color but still are very bright.

Retros will be the brightess, but is pricey, the difference between the projector with halo that you can buy everywhere is the quality of the projector itself. So it directly affect the light output of the headlight.

I have a set of halo projectors now. Couldn't I just buy the hid bulbs that you have for them?
