I just recently bought my C4 and have been wanting to upgrade the headlights and foglights on them but have had trouble finding quality ones. I've been looking at some projector HIDs as my number 1 option, but I'm open to any other suggestions! Below is the type of headlight I am sort of looking for. If you recognize where these came from please let me know! Other than that I appreciate any suggestions!
I upgraded to the glass Euro H4 housings with high wattage bulbs, larger wiring, relays, fuses etc, years ago, huge improvement.
If I was doing it now, I would try the LEDs first, much easier, and don't burn out.
I upgraded to HID on my C5, but not as good as H4s, and I like the adaptive LEDs on my AUDI best.
I went with the $80 Amazon LED's. i've been driving the car at night, and recently got to drive my wifes minivan. I wanted to improve the lights on the Corvette when I got it because the stock lights were garbage, and the idea was to get close to the minivans modern lights, but i didn't think I get real close.
Anyway I was amazed that the Corvette lights are now better than the 2013 Chrysler Town and Country. I replaced the fogs with LEDs too, but they still suck....

I've had the 80ndollar ones for a few years now and I still love them. You can spend more, but I doubt you're gonna get much better performance, unless you were to go with something like a Morimoto mled and retro it in... And even then I don't know that it'd be a major difference, and those are 300 bucks for just the projectors.
This is what I just put in on Friday... Skip the resistors... defeats the purpose of lightening the load on the charging system. The relay mod (aka the Yun Mod) is so simple and also allows you to run the fogs with the hi or lo beams on...
I upgraded to LED, did the mod but still had issues. Added resistors and they solved the issues BUT they ran way too hot IMHO. Took them out. Anyone know of any "plug and play" LEDs?
