I have used them in the past and had no problems shipping to calgary.

I'm sure there are other good online places, but they had a good price on the specific nokya ones I wanted.

thankss, maybe ill try that conversion from h3c to H3, looks pretty simple and i can get H3 bulbs everywhere.

The conversion is SUPER simple, and you're modifying the housing instead of the bulb, so once converted you're just running normal H3 bulbs from then on.

edit: lol, same link as above. Parts are all available at partsource and cost $10 total.

for finding high output bulbs locally such as piaa, your best bet will be to try the beyond sponsors...

if you just want a new "regular / OEM" H3C bulb, Acura dealerships should have them. I forgot exactly which model year (maybe 96 - 98), but the Acura TL's use H3C bulbs for their integrated foglights

hey thanks for the help guys. Im just gonna do the conversion looks really easy and should work for now, i just went to crappy tire and got all the parts i need, and for bulbs just bought those sylvania silverstar H3's, should work.
parts and 2 h3 bulbs cost me 60$

Dealers work wacky hours, and parts counters often have even worse hours then the sales guys - the ability to go into any auto-parts store or Canadian Tire to get replacement bulbs far outweighs any "negative" to swapping. Also, H3C's are more expensive than H3's, as I found out at a Lexus dealership.
