Default Hella twin supertone horn VS. set of driving lights

just an opinion meter...I want to buy a small mod just to have something new to play with for a while. which would you guys go with? the loud *** new horn, or a set of driving lights? they'd cost me about the same amount so it's not a money thing...just looking for opinions.

I've wanted to get both but, I think I'm just going to save for some HIDs instead of driving lights. I was going to get the OEM ones but, I figured why get something else someone will try to steal.

How much are the hellas? I HATE the oem horn. It's so weak I won't use it.

Slyvania (sp?) Superstars (Sp?) 9005 conversion (or is it 9006?)

New lights would be more beneficial IMO; 9005 Conversion with Sylvania Silverstars.

A nice, loud horn would cost you only around $25. Or you can go to a salvage yard and pick up a BMW horn or something.

those horns rule

driving lamps... dont do it, save up and get real deal HID
I know, they rule so much better than driving lights, no joke.

ALF, maybe i haven't read enough about it or something but why do a 9005 conversion? are the 9005 bulbs brighter? how do you do the conversion?
also, where can i get a good *** horn for $25? the hella supertones are $65...are you talking about buying one of those air horn setups or something else? and if i went and found a BMW horn or something at a salvage yard...i would probably have to make my own wiring harness to hook it up right with my car right?

9005 bulbs are highbeam bulbs and they dont have that coating on the tip of the glass like 9006's(low beam bulbs) do. They are better for projector beams. Higher wattage too i think.
