HeadLight Bulbs?

Halogen Headlight Bulbs by PUTCO

What are good replacement bulbs? I have searched the threads and didn't really find anything. I installed these blue bulbs in a buddies F150 and they look great. It wasn't any brighter but they worked well and gave him a nice look.

I have ordered clear headlights, corner lights, and the orange blinker. I am now looking for new bulbs - what has everyone else been using? Thanks for any help.

I put PIAA's in because they were on sale. Nice white light, hint of blue, DOT legal.

What made an even bigger difference was aiming my headlights. They were pointed at the ground.

Thanks for the info. I looked at PIAA's website - how did you know which model of lights fit your truck? Did you pick them up at local parts house?
