Question Need recommendations for upgrading headlight bulbs for LS

In my personal opinion, the stock bulbs for my LS suck lol... Definitely a struggle at night time! Have any of you guys upgraded yours, and which do you recommend? Thanks guys!

HID in a halogen housing is illegal. Get Silverstar zXe bulbs.

8000k is just dumb and its worse than stock lighting. If you want HID you need RS housings or a projector retrofit. Your doing it horribly wrong any other way.

Look into silverstar bulbs if you don't want to spend too much

I understand what you mean about the horrible lighting on the LS model, but an alternative to changing the headlights you can install fog lights for under $100 and it will improve the visibility dramatically!
