Which is the best bulb for improved visibility? I wouldn't be doing this for "looks", but for the best visibility. I saw that 3000's were best for rain/snow. I see most are going for the 6000's.

6000K gets into the bluer/cooler temps and while some prefer the blue, to violet to deep blue look, OEM is going to be the brightest. That's why all car manufacturer's specify them.

I updated my nav dvd to a 2009 copy, and in doing so, there was a message on the screen that said updating - I guess it updated the software too. I have daytime running lights as an option on my 04 vdp... Even though the disc does not work consistently and I am still looking for a better copy or way to copy
