Are they worth the money?

 

Yes.

 

love them but they are kind of pricey

 

I love mine. I had the first Silverstars and loved them. But when I purchased the Ultras, I also got the high beams, and all I have to say is...WOW!

Easy install too, it took just a few minutes. At least for my tC.

 

i only did mine because they were avaliable from pepboys with a $20 rebate.

 

Made a huge difference when I was driving the Isuzu Trooper.. when I get some money flowing again, I'll be putting some in no doubt.

 

X2, but from kragen...............they are way better than stock i love them!

 

any one have any pics?

 

The one on the left is ultras silver star and the right is oem................



And these are with both ultras on.........................

 

wow, nice. how much do these usually run for a pair?

 

I think I paid $50 each set at Auto Zone.

 

Bought some at Schucks couple months ago. On sale plus a 20 buck rebate so I thought what the... They are an improvement but are certainly not HID's. I recall they claim 10% brighter which sounds about right, but I think the color temperature helps the most (closer to daylight). I really hate the xD's headlights on low - it's my biggest gripe about the car so far. Someday will find a way to mount fog/driving lights to fill in the near field. The absence of such on the aftermarket is gripe 2!

 

I've used both Silverstars and CoolBlues in my tC and they are quite a difference... Got the CoolBlues on sale at WalMart once for $7 each. PepBoys is usually the place for Silverstar Ultras.

I think I'm going to drop some in my xD here soon...

 

had them on the Murano since my wife was complaining that it was becoming difficult to see at night. Made a huge difference

 

I installed 'em and man are they bright!

 

in noticed more a of a difference with the high beams... but i do like the color temp a lot better.

 

On my tC I actually did the 9005 - 9006 retrofit and put highbeam bulbs in the lowbeams... 1700 lumens vs 1000... it made a HUGE difference.

I'm thinking of snagging some Ultras for the D though. They're worth the money, especially if you're already replacing blubs.

 

I've been hearing that Silverstars don't last that long :? Like 6-8mos max or something like that. Because of that I bought a knock off brand for nearly half the price at Kragen That way if they burn out I won't feel bad of shelling out a bunch of money

 

My mom always tells me to drive with my lights on, I say I do, it's just the parking lights though. I'm not wasting $50 bulbs during the day. Sorry.

 

Had the same complaint here from my Fiance about her 06 altima. I put in the regular silverstars and they have helped light up the road quite a bit. The OEM low beams suck, we constantly would have drive with the high beams on because the lows were useless.
