Hi guys, i want help regarding car headlights upgrade.
I have upgraded my car's stock headlight bulbs with 130/100W bulbs. Fitting guy did not install wiring kit, he said no need of wiring kit and relay.[confused]
I have read some forums saying wiring kit with relay is very much important .please help guys.

Hay hay that was a joke, that's real cat under the car.[lol]
I think no need of wiring kit & relay unless you are not using HID kit.
cause the stock H4 Bulb is 55w something i think. actually no use of installing more brighter+high power yellow halogen bulbs. you better go for White,Blue Cool white LED Headlamp bulbs or a 8000K HID kit. it will make more differance at night + more beauty to car.

Can u add the pics of the 100w bulbs u now using? [:)]

white lights are prohibited here in punjab. I don't want to be stopped and fined by the COPs. Secondly some experts are saying that yellowish lights gives more visibility on road in any weather condition as compared to white lights.
HID lights are very much costly [surprise] and i am not a regular night driver .

Yesterday returned from a 422 kms trip. My alto gave 23+ kmpl FE.[:D]
I am not satisfied with my headlight bulbs. Light beams are very lower. Why did i purchase cheaper Chinese blubs.[anger]
I will try Philips Rally bulbs.

Most tyre pressure gauges at roadside shops arent calibrated prroperly. That apart, its a good idea to get wheel alignment checked up after replacing a flat tyre.

Lucky, why dont you chuck the seats and put 'Saroya Discotheque' stickers all over the car?[;)]

And when is your Pulsar ownership thread coming up?[glasses]

And just dont worry about the response. As Japji sahib says:' Deh Shiva bar mohe ehai, shubh karman te kabhun na tarun...." (May the Lord bless me that I never falter from good deeds).

Keep posting, you are doing good for your Alto and to the automotive community[thumbswink]

They didn’t comment doesn’t mean they are not reading this thread. I am myself following it from a while now and appreciate your enthusiasm. Keep it coming. [thumbsup]

Thank you 350Z and SAM .
And when is your Pulsar ownership thread coming up?
Really want to share my PULSAR 180 ownership review ,but not much excited due to poor response from TAI members.[cry]
I think i should wait for some time and should join other members in their conversations.[thinking]
