Default Help! Bulb size and color?

Would anyone be able to tell me what size bulbs (headlights) a 99 civic takes? Looking at some PIAA's...any input on colors? Theres xtreme white, star white, ion crystal, super plasma, plasma blue. Is it worth the money?

Thanks!

99 Civics take H4 bulbs.

I would get Sylvania Silverstars over PIAA. PIAA are pretty pricey, and Silverstars are only around $30-$40 for both. I have them and love them.

The output is absolutely terrible, but what do you expect from an econobox.

I really actually like my GE 9003SB bulbs. Theyre very white, last about 2 years a pop, and cost me like 18 bucks.

Forget Sylvania Silverstars......Go to luminicsbulbs.com & get some bulbs of your choice with a 1 year warranty. Very bright and efficient.

Peace

True.. I figured that the 92-95 model year would be the end of the H4 bulb.. Never thought Honda would be retarded enough to continue to use those bulbs. Shitty econobox is right!

I'll take the functionality of a BMW bi-xenon over "looking funny" any day of the week.
