GE 9006NHP/BP2

OK, everybody with a car that takes 9004 headlights know how horrible the design is. The low-beam is only 45 watts, focused basically like a cheap flood light only worse. Finally, there is a good bulb in 9004: the GE 9006NHP/BP2. It is the only +90 sold in the US, and the only one for 9004. (It is also available in almost every bulb type except sealed beams). As the 9004 was US-only, most of the good European bulbs (Osram Silverstar and Nightbreaker, Philips Xtreme Power, etc) are not available in 9004.

Not sold anywhere except  (Wal-Mart used to sell them but they no longer carry this awesome bulb).GE 9006NHP/BP2. The price is for example , the Sylvania Silverstar, and cheaper than the Silverstar Ultra (which are both "faker" blue-tinted overpriced junk). Most "bright" and "white" bulbs cheat their way to white light by dipping their bulb in blue paint--it "looks" whiter but the blue filter really robs much of the light, and visibility is usually *decreased*. This tint also shortens the life of the bulb significantly. Blue light also scatters profusely while it is raining and other bad weather. The Nighthawk Platinum only has a narrow band of blue tint near the end of the bulb, away from the filament, so its light-robbing effect is minimal hopefully. (the regular Nighthawk has no tint in any way) GE 9006NHP/BP2
