I just recently got this car from my parents. It is automatic sadly, but I will have to work with it because my 96 Honda Civic Hatchback is going to be sold soon.

I wanted to modify some things on this car. Like nice cheap modifications like adding new interior dome lights to the car to blue/white LED. If anyone has any other things I can change to make the car look nice, please let me know I want to change it up a bit.

Does anyone have suggestions for really bright nice bulbs I can use to see better at night?
I want a white/blue SUPER SUPER bright light. What are the best bulbs I can get for this Honda Accord?

Any suggestions thanks!

one thing ive learned is that adding tints to your car (legally) is instant noticeable mod. but look for hid lights (43k or 8k) for your headlights, 43k is the one i have is the bluish tint one, its really bright, the 8k the white one, is much brighter. im thinking of getting some white led for my interior car, it seems relatively simple to diy and bulbs dont seem too expensive

Don't you have any consideration for the other drivers who will be blinded by your headlights?

What brand of bulbs should I get? What is a very well known good brand bulbs, that will last me?

Thanks for the input I'm not sure. I already have tints already though on this car, and it's a nice add and good for my interior leather during the summer.

^This. The stock bulbs are plenty bright.

They aren't bright even when not in high beams. I have hit a deer horribly a few months ago, I want to prevent this issue because it was a pretty bad accident a few months ago. It ran into the street in the dark out of no where, it was a tad bit traumatizing watching the animal die with blood shed on my front windows.

I just wanted to illuminate the road well, in my area there is a lot of deer.

It's just a bad experience and something I don't want to occur again so I wanted to get new headlights that are brighter.

Check vleds.com. They are a little on the pricey side but from what I have seen they are good quality.

So what about the oncoming drivers that you blind with your new, brighter headlights? If you need more light, turn the high beams on and then turn them back to low beam when a car comes. Thats what theyre there for.
If a deer is going to run out in front of you, its going to run out in front of you no matter what you do. I used to have a Ford F-150 that had Silverstar bulbs and I still hit a couple deer with it. Stuff happens.

Reverse that. White lights are 4300k or so. 8000k is going to be blue. Higher the number means more blue. The more blue the light is, the more strain it puts on your eyes because it puts out less usable light.

Look into doing a retrofit so you have the projectors needed to properly utilize HID bulbs. Using HID bulbs in factory housings just causes massive glare, blinding oncoming drivers, and you don't get the full effect of your new bulbs anyway. They need the focusing lense in the projector to properly light the road.
