PIAA is constantly updating and improving our range of lighting
systems, wipers and associated vision enhancing products.
Since their introduction the PIAA Super Silicone
Blades have swept into the lead in Wiper technology. While
competitors use normal rubber or at best graphite or Teflon
coated, only PIAA use a 100% silicone rubber blade. This
means that the blade lasts longer and the coating does not
come off the blade after a few thousand miles.
The new PIAA Si-Tech (Silicone Technology)
Flat Wiper Blade, is a modern, frameless wiper that delivers
all-season performance, thanks to PIAA’s patented
silicone impregnated rubber blades. The key to the PIAA
Si-Tech’s performance is its design that creates more
pressure points across the entire length of the blade for
streak-free wiping. It eliminates snow and ice build-up,
is heat and ozone resistant, and its silicone rubber continually
reapplies an active silicone coating on the windshield,
assuring effective streak-free, quiet operation.
The range is the first in the new Global
ranges developed by PIAA Japan, and carries the worldwide
certification and conformity. It takes on, competes
and out performs the opposition.
Ideal for bad weather conditions, PIAA's
highly developed Vision
range of Screen products is re launched with larger
value added sizes and improved formula's to offer
a superb range of Screen care products.
All the products are compatible with
PIAA Super Silicon Wipers
and enhance the function of the blades. As there is
not always a wiper application for every car, the
Vision products are a great substitute.
PIAA Sport Horns have been developed from PIAA's
competition involvement in the Dakar Rally and are designed
to work in the most arduous conditions. They are ultra light
weight with a weather shield on the front to prevent dirt
and water getting into the horn. This is unique to PIAA.
Having their own distinctive sound they operate at an attention
grabbing 115db. They can now be fitted to competition cars
all over the World as the FIAA and in the UK the MSA, who
previously permitted only air horns, now permit the use
of these electric horns. PIAA Horns are supplied in pairs

PIAA’s
latest very special edition to the Platinum Competition
range, in H4 fitment only. It is a pure Motorsport developed
product, utilizing the PIAA low/high technology, drawing
just the standard 60 watts on dip yet producing the equivalent
output of 140 watts and it is a softer colour so that the
bulb can be used in all weather conditions without to much
glare.
On main beam, drawing 80 watts and producing 150 watts
output, this is a very bright white light ideal for the
stages at night. This is all possible due to the special
unique gases, the increased glass tube size, heavy duty
filaments plus the very special ceramic base of the bulb
that helps dissipate the heat. The Platinum competition
range are safe to use in plastic lenses
Note they are not E marked and are for Competition, Off
Road and Show Use only. RRP £86.70 + VAT a pair.
The Deno series is PIAA’s latest technology
LED lighting derived from the many OEM projects that
PIAA are involved in. The lamps with clear white LEDs
are supplied in pairs with wiring, and help bring
any car up to date with the latest look that is appearing
on new models such as the Porsche 911 Turbo, Audi
R8 and the Audi A5.
They are available as either 6 or 12 LED bulb lamps
and are ideal if used as day running lamps. As they
are LED the current draw is minimal. They are also
available in RED which can be used either as rear
day running lamps or brake lights, the red models
are supplied singly.

bulbs designed especially for
Power Sports. PIAA PowerSports Series lamps and
anti-vibration
bulbs are ideal for motorbike, quadbikes and snow
mobile applications
A
distinctive feature of BMWs are their Illuminated
headlamp halo rings. More recently, with the increased
use of HID lighting, these rings appear almost yellow
in comparison with the crisp blue/white light emitted
by HID units. To enhance appearance, PIAA has developed
a range of upgrade kits which increase the brightness
of the halo rings. These simply plug into existing
headlamps in place of standard bulb-based items. The
first to be available in the UK is for the E-90 3-Series,
with kits for other BMW models due be introduced next
year. This bulb and socket assembly replaces the stock
unit to give the vehicle’s headlamp Halo Ring
a clean, white 6500 Kelvin brilliance.
PIAA use the highest-grade alloys in the manufacturing
of PIAA High Performance Wheels, so you can ride with
pride and confidence. Quality begins with the design.
PIAA scientifically engineers wheels to exacting specifications
utilizing the latest in integrated computer aided
