pic of plasma industries bulbs

did some mods Friday (lights and wheels). here's a pic of my headlight housing with Plasma Industries 4500k bulbs. Same color for high/low/fog lights. I've had them on my audi for a year w/o any problems. Thought some ppl. might be interested. By the way, how do some of you take pics with your digi cam from front. I have a decent one but whenever i try to take pic from direct front at nite w/ ligts on it gets too bright and fuzzy

*with the Bose system on the Coupe I finally found where the bose sub is (rear right trunk panel). Is there anything I can do to actually hear bass??? I have stock radio right now and my Audio 10 Cd is coming in today or monday. Will the audio 10 unit bring out the bass on Bose sys? Thanks.

You could try exposing for the light...when you do that the light will be properly expose but the car body will be underexposed.

thanks they look even better in person. I bought them from an Ebay seller (email address volig@aol.com) He's great to communicate with and will give you a great deal. Just tell him Keith told you.

Plasma bulbs

Jet

I don't know how they compare. Would have to see them side by side to know I guess.

I am very happy with the Phillips bulbs, but like all of us I'm always interested in something new or better...

Enjoy the ride

Yeah I did low/high/fog lights all same for consistent color....I still haven't found city lights that will match color temp/output. I thought about LED wedge bulbs but I heard the computer throws an error code....is that true?
