PIAA xtreme white plus bulbs

Changed the oil today so I snapped a few pics of these bulbs vs stock. I've had really good longevity with them in the past on my other tacomas, and they are much brighter than stock and also much whiter. They're a nice alternative to HID's or projectors and last way longer than crappy sylvanias ive also used.

Driver side is PIAA, passenger side still stock


Ignore the garage mess, I'm in the process of moving

 

My brother had a pair of Xtreme Whites last more than 3 years, which both surprised us. All the various aftermarket bulbs we've used lasted anywhere between 10 to 18 months.

 

How did you set the bulbs in the housing? Lite emitting left to right? Up and down? Slightly angled?

 

They're H4 bulbs so they just line up with the tabs.

 

I had some in a set of halogen projectors. Didn’t have them long enough to speak on longevity, but I liked the color of them a lot. Not sure if they were actually brighter but they sure seemed like it.

 

I bought some used headlights from Japan for my 240SX that had PIAA's in them and they lasted at least 2 years before I eventually sold it.
