Hey Everyone,
I'm usually in the classic forum. My Dad has a 1997 Cobra. He doesn't see so well in the dark. I upgraded his headlights to GE Nighthawks. They seem to put out more light on the road. I would like to put better bulbs in the fog lights as well, but neither the Nighthawk or the XtraVision from Sylvania are available in 899. The Nighthawk is available in 893.
Anyway, my question is this. What is the difference between 893 and 899 halogen bulbs? They look like they are nearly the same thing. From what I have seen, the wattage is the same also. Will it hurt anything to run the 893 in place of the 899? Is the 899 better for some reason?
I have done much research on lighting and don't want to run any of the tinted bulbs or increased wattage bulbs. I'm running Xtravision bulbs in my F150 right now. I like them better than the SilverStars I had before. The SSTs look kinda cool but don't make much light in my opinion. They are just whiter but not as bright.
Is it difficult to replace the fog light bulbs on the Cobra? Any tips?
