All I also purchased the Honda Fog-Lights for the car. Can't hurt to have the additional light out front in my opinion. (IMO).
Let us know what the Dealer says or does?

Yeah, I think what you are saying is correct for the most part. I have not adjusted any of my prior Honda headlights either. However I am getting older and it does make a difference when when you put in the Brighter Bulbs. I very small upward adjustment on the headlights is not going to Blind anyone coming towards you, but it will make a difference as to how well you can see out in front of your car. To each his own is what I say. If no adjustment is necessary then don't mess up a good thing. If the headlights are to close to the front of the car, then have them adjusted by the dealer. That is what the warranty is for.

Re: Low beam on 06 HCH
once again, i'd like to state that the sylvania silverstars are not worth the price, especially when the OSRAM silverstars are the same price and have higher light output and longer life (350hrs vs. 250hrs for the Sylvania's. OEM is about 1000hrs).

I know a lot of people who have been unhappy w/ the sylvania's because they burn out fast. I just really wish they would have the option of HID's. Even if they didn't want to go through the trouble of designing two different reflector housings, they could have just made the HID's w/ a projector lens and saved a lot of time.

Re: Low beam on 06 HCH
I just read these sentences on the OSRAM website, and now I'm confused....
"As the world market leader in automotive lamps, OSRAM offers a wide range of products: headlight lamps and all other light sources for interior and exterior vehicle lighting. In Europe and Asia, OSRAM concentrates solely on light sources and cooperates with other companies in the headlight industry to create lighting solutions for cars. In North America, OSRAM SYLVANIA also offers complete headlight systems."
So OSRAM owns Sylvania ???? Then whats the difference ????

Re: Low beam on 06 HCH
Yeah, basically OSRAM is OSRAM Sylvania in North America. But that bothers me that the lights on the OSRAM's are better than Sylvania's if they're made by the SAME company. GGGGRRRRR. Anyway, has anyone tried to the cool blues ???? I want the BLUEST I can get, forget the brightness, the BLUEST. What does everyone recommend ????
