Where to get luminics bulbs?

Where to get luminics bulbs?

Postby bullet3z » Thu Feb 07, 2008 8:28 pm

I need to get a set of the JDM yellow Luminics in H10 for my truck. The only ones listed on e-bay are buy it now for $49.00. I got them for the Solara fogs for $29.00. I do not think those size bulbs are worth $49.00 for a set. If anyone knows a good spot with a better price please let me know.

i bought mine @ island motorsports
IMO colored bulbs arent worth the money anymore to me unless youre looking for RED or something.

why luminics? The Nokya yellow's or the hella yellows are better. Even the PIAA Ion Crystals are better.

Note* the nokya's won't last as long as the others listed.

I second that! I also had nokya's and they actually blew up in my fog lamps. It was bitch to get all the broken glass out. Not to mention I couldn't get it all. I got Lumincs instead and they have been working great and they are defiantly more yellow than nokyas.

I got mine at www.automotivelightingus.com and they have your H10 luminics in yellow for 29.99

you should leave the stock bulbs and put on some yellow headlight film.

The reason that I needed the luminics over the Nokyas was due to the wattage of the bulbs. These are for a Chevy truck driving lights. If you go over the stock wattage they will melt the factory driving light housing. Please don't ask why I know this. Well I found the Hella's are the same wattage and I went with those instead.

As for the yellow tint. It's not worth the time to tint them. Just to watch them get trashed from all the lovely salt and sinders on the roads around here.

In my opinion the film is well worth it, i've had mine for a while and it's seen salt, rain, dirt,everything. nothing wrong, and gives you more light than just yellow bulb itself in my opinon.
and it's not hard to tint them at all. I did mine myself and they turned out great.
