anyone can recommends which bulb should i change to improve my lighting at nite
seems stock bulbs not too bright for me
hopefully low cost will do
thanks

dont get the cheap ones
the higher rating bulbs that are cheap dont last long
some just 3 months n burn already
go for a good trustworthy brand
they may cost as much as double the el-cheapo bulbs
but they last wayyy longer

philip lo
Philips X-tremePower +80% light
or bosch

normal bulb just plug n play.
see garage lo.

how about Hella?
i using Hella bulb

Hella? I'm using now.. 90/100 watt.. Just to tell you, HELLA bulb got alot imitation. Even I kena before and charge me Rm35 per piece.. While now, I get original hella H4 bulb just for RM15. Original hella and imitation got alot of different in term of brightness..

While if you use 90/100w bulb on stock relay, the relay socket and wire will melt. So that why we need to change to 90/100w. If you get 55/60w bulb, you no need to put relay because it still acceptable for the stock relay.

A reliable brand bulb is such like PIAA, Philips, Osram, Hella and japan brand 'raybirg'. If normal halogen stock, Hella and osram is cheap while raybirg also need RM30+ eachh.. For PIAA, it need rm200++ per pair while philips is from 75-RM200++.. You google at garage sales, got a seller selling philips rally. It good and cheap.. But it need relay.

u change ur headlight bulb oledi? jpj tangkap bo? brighter?

ok thanks for explaining
now i'm understand

true...i think i using 100/130 watt. very bright leh.
i use relay too..

sory
been missing a while
tied up at work

can pls explain a little on the wiring schematics?
where do ya'll install the relay?
what rating wires ya'll use?

at 130watts, the draw will be just under 11amps
most auto relays are 30amp relays (i think... pls correct me if im wrong)
what type of wires ya'll use?
where do ya'll tap off the wire to go to the relay coil?
where is it mounted?
can please elaborate?
thanks alot

Why JPJ wanna tangkap? it brighter and kill ur headlamp faster.. You very scare of JPJ meh?

100/130 watt is too much.. Suggest you use 90/100 ceramic socket relay. If you still using 90/100 pvc socket, it might melt as well..
and, 100/130w bulb will kill your headlight reflector more faster..

Just tap the wiring from the battery. The 90/100w wiring is damn huge.. After put the 90/100 wiring kit, the stock socket we will leave it there.. We use the new socket from the wiring kit..

In other way, we call it 90/100w headlight wiring kit. if said relay, might confuse abit.. The wiring kit inside got contain 2 relays... Why we need to change relay? Because if we use 90/100w, the stock wiring and stock socket cannot stand the heat. The stock wiring is so tiny. So if need to change to better socket, and more huge wiring.. We still can use 50/60w bulb if using 90/100w headlight wiring kit.

where does the relay tap it coil current (the thing that switches the relay on and off) from? (i understand that the power comes from the battery)

Err.. Sorry bro.. Not really understand what you mean. Do you mean, where the 90/100 wiring relay get switch off and switch on? If yes, it from stock wiring.. I not sure after put 90/100w, the stock socket when plug in bulb still got light or not..

i try to take pic n post here. i dunno how to describe

Bro.. I know how it get the signal..

The wiring goes like this..

Battery -> relay -> 90/100w wiring kit -> socket which plug into STOCK headlight socket -> 2 90/100w wiring socket -> 90/100 bulb.

It get the turn on and turn off signal from the stock socket. Because the 90/100w wiring kit got a socket need to plug into stock headlamp socket.

you said u bought the hose from proton parts center rite?when did u buy it?i went there but the staff checked the item is no longer in stock,anywhere..even the parts book they had to dig from old stacks.where can i get it?

proton parts at glenmarie

yes thats where i went
