KC's rust and Hella's are plastic. IPF or PIAA are great.

Are they bright? Did you go fog or driving? Do they cover the sides of the road well?

I have the Piaa 540 extreme white driving lights on my window mounts and they are by far the best for the money, they are the ones on the top

All i know is dont get the fog lights if you are attempting to light up the road. I got the fogs hoping that they would be good in fog and make the road bright but they didnt

I heard the Ion Crystal PIAA's work really well with bad weather, snow and such. Never tried my PIAAs in the snow yet.
