I went to kragen today to get some silverstar halogen bulbs, but the 9003 and h4s looked just like my bulbs. Can anyone tell me which is the correct one, or is there any difference between the two?

thanks a bunch,
-Ryan

I'm almost kinda sure the 9003 is the number for the H4 replacement bulb Confused . Just check the high/low beam wattage for your intentions. I've got 55/80watt bulbs, you can see good but oncoming traffic doesn't like them Rolling Eyes . Typical is 55/60.

Pretty sure they're identical. I have run 9003s in my motorcycle (with an H4 bucket and connector) for a few years with no problems.
