Nice. I would go with the Hella HL78322 from http://www.rallylights.com/hella/9007.asp

This will be as bright and as close as you can get to a true HID kit. Do not I repeat Do not buy those stupid blue bulbs that everyone thinks looks cool. They are rice and everyone knows it. If you go with them then I suggest that you dont even bother chanign the headlights.

I am running those bulbs in my headlights with an upgraded wiring and juding by my vision there is at least 50% more light now then there was before.

yea

GTS - Those are white right?

I also want to get new gauges, since my 00 Neon didnt bring an RPM gauge, what would you guys recommend?

It's easy to get rid of the fogged-upness of headlights. Just use some good plastic polish, and a lot of elbow grease.

Care to explain

Mine dont even look fogged, looks like the plastic has been eaten away by the sun... i cleaning it today with some compound remover and it helped a libble bit but it still sucks....ill just end up getting new ones.

Yeah, if there that bad, you can polish them all you want - They'll look a bit better for about a week then go right back to where they were. TRUST ME. I owned a Thunderbird with the same problem. The best solution next to buying the new headlight housings is to do the sanding, buffing, polishing thing.

I have had those headlights for years. They look just like new too. I keep up with them by polishing them twice a year. Good choice!
