I guess it's the same with PIAA advertising 110Watts! I guess that's another way of saying 55W input yeilds 80W or 110W output or brightness...

Aerotect in La Verne, California sells them. I believe they take phone orders as well.

+1 on the nokya bulbs!

Ive had the nokya yellow bulbs on for about 2 years now with zero problems!


The nokya bulbs are bright as hell...All my friends tell me they are brighter than the factory headlights. Its so bright that i dont even see blue light in front of my car when I'm driving anymore, its just yellow!

Lumens are the rated output on bulbs, watts is the power consumption
