Hey guys
wife and i just moved into our new house and its in the sticks
which requires alot of hi beams at night
what do you recommend i replace the current hi beam bulbs with?
what bulb # does it take and what do you recommend that will make a BIG difference

thanks

Erick

 

i think it's a 9005 bulb...i use piaa super whites currently and it seems to brighten everything up...i also have after market driving lights too...that may also help...

 

Install a set of PIAA driving lights and wire the relay for those so it's energized with the fog lamp circuit. The driving lamps will give you "high beam" illumination along with low beam and fog lamp "spread" and "close " (fog) illumination. And you can turn them off with the fog lamp switch when not on those back roads or if you happen to meet an oncoming car "back there".

 

You're lucky. The high-beams (9005) are
the easiest bulbs to change on the RX 300.

I highly recommend Sylvania SilverStar High Performance Halogen
bulbs. I've used them and they are great. Since I spent the big
bucks on an HID upgrade, I don't use my high-beams as often.

You can get SilverStars for $20-$25 ea. at most auto stores,
Advance, Auto Zone, Pep Boys, etc.
