Default Replacement light-bulbs

I was driving today, and realised one of my headlights have blown out in my 93 Accord ex. Anybody know a good kind that I can find at a local autostore that won't cost me too much?

What do you mean by "good kind"? Like a regular replacement bulb or like the super bright colored bulbs? As for the regular replacement bulbs just go with the major name brands (sylvania or G.E.) at the auto parts store. I have no clue on the colored bulbs.

But if you want a good lightbulb just go with a LLhalogen from GE. You could also do the 9005 conversion, basically converting the 9005 bulb to go into your 9006 socket, search conversion or 9005.

Any 9006 bulb will work, shouldnt be more than $10 for one. Or, you could upgrade and get a pair of Silverstar bulbs, and have bright white light.

With the 9005 to 9006 conversion is it the same as if you just turn your brightlights on? Will I notice any differece when I turn on my bright lights? I know 80W bulbs will fry the wiring since the wiring is only made for stock ones which are 55W will these 65W 9005 bulbs fry the wiring? Any downsides to doing the mod? Will you get a ticket for them or is it legal?
