Headlight bulb upgrade

[chuck]

Anyone knows the type of bulb used in the headlights? I'd be interested in a whiter/brighter upgrade.

862 I've been looking for an LED replacement. Nothing. If you find something please post a link.

Yep, Bulbs are #862. Haven't found a good replacement.

I did order these but they sucked.

I ordered the same bulbs and like them. Not any brighter but I like the blue light.

@wyo700,
yep, I think U were the one who found them. Maybe my set was defective cause they were not very bright.. Lol.

ok, so after some research, the base of the headlight bulbs are PGJ13 type.

I found this LED bulb that should work and I might give it a try: http://www.ebay.com/itm/LED-25W-6500K-C ... 1030644615

I also found these, but at 100 W, I'd be worried about melting something. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-881-Car-Sup ... 10&vxp=mtr

Alright, so I just placed an order for these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ABL-881-862-894 ... b2&vxp=mtr

They are the brightest I could find, albeit also the priciest. Will report on feedback when I get them installed.

the 862 bulbs are 38 watts try the 886 bulb its 50 watts

 

[wyo700]

Check these out. I think they will work also. If an 886 will work it says that right on the box. I might have to get some. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0049W0NV ... SY165_QL70

I already ordered the LED version I pointed to above. Let us know how you like them if you decide to get them!

Let us know how those work also. Hondasxs has me worried since I haven't actually been in the dark yet with mine.

Stock headlights are fine to get around, even in full darkness. It's also fun to scare your passengers when turning off the headlights at full speed in the dark (tsk tsk tsk...).

Mines are in transit. Will report back when installed.

Please post your results chuck. I am interested in the what you think. I desperately want to upgrade the lights on my ride.

Anyone have a successful light bulb upgrade yet? With my leds on my headlights are really yellow looking now.

 

[chuck]

i got mines in. They look bright and white. Haven't installed on vehicle yet though, just plugged in using 12 PS.

 

[Hondasxs]

Pics or it didn't happen. LOL.

Whenever you get time we would like to see them.

I am wondering if Honda plans to offer a H/L beam kit?
I've already offended some neighborhood peeps driving at night. Got the light flick from them...

How did we turn out with the LED upgrades? Pics?
