well .. i figured my car has been good lately so i would do something nice for her and thought i would pick up some of the Sylvania Silverstar bulbs ..thinking it would get rid of the "whitish" lights that my 99.5 have.. i mean they arent dingy yellow or anything.. but was hoping to get a brighter white / bluish HID look with these bulbs..

so as i was changing out the old with the new.. i noticed that the bulbs looked exactly the same before i even put them in the car.. and as suspected after paying the $38 for new bulbs the appearance was exactly the same [:@]

they are awesome replacement bulbs .. the are exactly same as stock .. but not if you hope to get an "HID" look.. i was greatly dissapointed ....

 

i got the same ones and i also noticed that bulbs look the same, but the silverstars are a bit whiter. im planing to get the fog lights too. i want the head lights, fog lights and the corner lights to match

 

what model did u get and that ssucks

 

they were the "closest thing to HID" model.. i believe there is only one model..

 

I noticed when I put the silverstar "Pure white" model in that it was noticeably whiter and it improved my viewing distance by about 10/20 feet. Also, they illuminated signs better.

 

They arn't ment to give you a bluer look. Check out http://www.luminicsdirect.com/
I put some ultraviolets in my 3000GT and it looked ******* badass. (I had to edit they changed their URL)

 

I put in the PIAA's and noticed a bit of an improvement from stock but they'll never be like HID's.

 

Try the Sylvania 'Cool Blue' lights, they have a slight blue-ish tint to them.

after taking the car for a 4 am drive last night i noticed that they were slightly brighter .. not $38 brighter..

thanks for the link PJ ..

quick question.. ive seen the yellow H7 bulbs on various sites.. does anyone run these? im curious to what they look like

 

yep...ive got them as fogs....i really like them they help a lot ..and were totally worth the $25 highly recommend them....
