which would be the best ones to go with and which type? i have a 94 civic ex coupe btw. also, i will loose my high beam if i change to one of those bulbs correct? im afraid of melting my harness so i figured i check out here and see if you guys knew anything about them and like what wattage to go with, etc. thanks :thumbup:

The best bulbs IMO are OEM sylvannia's. They light up the road well and last forever (well almost )

You will not lose your high beams. Silverstars are about $40 a set. The ones on GBC have poor lighting output and usually die after a couple of weeks. If you *have* to get one of the GBC ones, the Nokya ones have better quality than the others.
