I can't find Nighthawk bulbs for my headlights, and wondering if anyone knows where to find them in Toronto, Canada. The size I need for my lowbeams is H7. No luck at Canadian Tire, Partsource, or Wal-Mart. The configurator at GE (http://genet.geappliances.com/autowizard/Dispatcher?REQUEST=MODEL_LIST&SMSESSION=NO) doesn't list any low beam bulbs at all!

BTW, I'm hoping that they are better than stock when used in a P5. The only definitive approval is in this post: http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2186073&postcount=8.

TIA

EDIT: It turns out that my local CT keeps the Nighthawks behind the counter, so I will check again and report back.

Update:

I found the bulbs, although I had to try a few stores until I found one with stock. All CT stores seem to keep Nighthawk stock behind the counter. One CT store and one Wal-Mart also had normal H7 bulbs on display. The CT bulb was in a different coloured package from the rest of the motomaster packages.

I haven't done any night-time driving yet, so I can't report on their effectiveness.

Good link. I'll have to read through it later.

So far the Nighthawks are much whiter, but no judgement on distance or brightness yet.
