I didn't want to do HID kits or LED conversions or MacGyver/retrofit bulbs so I replaced low-beam, high-beam and fog lights with those relatively new solux bulbs. They claim that they are 80% brighter, 50% whiter (4600k), longest beam, etc. but the kicker is that they claim they last as long as standard halogens. I really got tired of changing silverstar ultras all the time so I'm trying soluxs. So far I really like them and I'd say that they're spot-on with their brighter claim and they actually do have the color of natural daylight (not obnoxious white/blue). The low-beams and fogs are great great the high-beams are unbelievable. I just hope they last as long as they say they will. Will keep everyone posted.
