they have different bulbs, not piaa, but they are a lot cheaper. i bought the hyperwhites though.
yeah.....a buddy of mine bought these.....they aren't as yellow as he wanted....we was pretty disappointed.....

he had the PIAA plasmas before on his 99 GST but could not find them in h11 for his EVO.....


so he opted for HID's for fogs....and upgraded his stockers to 6000k....heh

Those PIAA ones say 110w on 'em... isn't that going to be a problem?

(this is from memory, might be wrong)
piaa ion crystal -- yellowish. Used to have these.
piaa plasma ion YELLOW -- (yellow)

the 2nd one is the one pictured. I was surprised. The bulbs are themselves yellow. I believe the older plasma ions were a clearish, multi-colored tint.

they are not 110w. the label says [japanese]55w>110w[japanese]
which either means 2 x 55w bulbs = 110 w or their 55w bulb is equivalent to a 110w builb. all marketing.

I don't have foglights on my base GSR........


I forgot where my buddy bought his foglights from but i'll check....(btw...they are HIDS, not just bulbs)

I purchased my HID conversion KIT for my low beams at http://xenondepot.com ....u'll see my EVO under the galleries section.....they say it's an 03, but i actually have an 05....with base halogens....

but...they do carry an H11 kit as well (and it's a true Phillips Kit), which would fit in the EVO fogs......color is very nice...


hope this helps...

Yah that's what I want to know where I Can find Yellow PIAA's. Hey Wicked05 seems the Base headlights don't have the same projector as the OEM HID's do? My cutoff line is much more purple.

no...they don't...the OEM HID projector was designed specifically for HIDs so the beam is alot more solid....which is why the cutoff line is a bit purple....

whereas my beam is not as solid (it is a bit scattered)..., but it still has pretty good coverage..... I adjusted my beam lower a bit as to not blind oncoming traffic....

when i bought the car....i wanted HID but didn't want the other options the SSL Package came with.....unecessary weight....

so i opted for this conversion instead....


an OEM HID conversion would have been better, too, but the cost was too much (new headlights and harness)...i didn't think it would've been worth it......

Yah.. I figured that. But your cutoff looks very good for not being OEM HID.

i found yellow hid's. they are 3000k and about 600$ shipped, but they will only work in the MR headlights. so once I get those i'll get the yellow hid's.

scroll down here http://xenonfactory.com/products/hid/philips.htm
