Xenon Headlight Bulbs?
- Thread starter naylor99
- Start date
I have some, but not those listed. I bought mine from Demand Motorsport. I spoke with George and Priscilla, who were both very informative in answering my questions. I replaced my high and low beams, the daytime running lights, and have the foglamp, front turn, and marker lights on the way. They are easy to install, place no more than the factory load on the harness, and are indeed brighter. Besides, I like the way the Xenon lights look. They are Asian made, but honestly, I cannot tell from the specs why PIAAs replacement bulbs are $75 a pair. These run an avereage of $22 a pair and are DOT specs. The link to the website is below:

Thanks Ahhnuld. Let us know how they all look once you get them in...
Hey, I never have found a bulb number or reference for the AV fog light bulbs. What is it, and what is the Xenon version (brighter, diff color, etc.)?
Thanks again for the info!

The color is a Bluish/white tint, as opposed to the Halogen, which is more on the yellow side of the light spectrum. The bulbs runs at the same wattage, but is noticably brighter on the road.
I cannot recall the part number, but if you call Demand, and tell them its for the Av, they know what bulb you need.

You might want to take a look at these. I put a pair of low-beamers in a few weeks ago. They're quite a bit brighter than the Cool Blue lights, and a LOT brighter than standard halogen. I'm going to replace the high-beamers real soon.

could some one link me to some companies that make xenon bulbs, you know the ones that look like bmw lights. Thanks. Alex
The Sylvania is a nice bulb, but more pricey. The ones I got from Demand are brighter than the cool blues.
Mine are at 3800K, as opposed to the Cool Blues at 3500K and the Silverstars at 4000K, it sits in between. Works for me.

I too just installed the Sylvania SilverStar bulbs, (low beam 9006 and high 9011). By the way, I have never had an easier time with access to the bulb area, just follow the instructions in the owners manual and the whole assembly pops out. I am really happy with the result, certainly an improvement over stock. Yes, pricey (more than $20 per at retail). But better than the blue spectrum bulbs out there for brightness - I tried those on another vehicle.
I also have some Hella Black Magic lights from my last rig that I am also going to install (they come on with the high beam circuit - I have 100 watt bulbs in them.) I am a fanatic about being able to see, on or off road, at night. Problem - not sure where to mount them since the idiots at Chevy did not include tabs for lights on the grill/brush guard.
