ok...bought the silverstars today to put in...then realized while attempting to replace the bulb that they are the small halegon clip in type...not at all like the OE bulbs...so I'm going to return the bulbs tomorrow and see what else I can come up with...I'll post a pic when I get home...

The lows use H3's...I have those same lights...heres what I found out when I took em apart...they ALREADY had the silverstars in there from the manufacturer, unless the numbers on the mounting plate of the bulb mean NOTHING...checked all markings, and they are 100% the same...so I'm guessin I'm just going to have to deal with my sh!tty low beams...I adjusted them a little bit, so they arent quite as bad...or I guess I could invest in an HID set-up

i had luminics and tried silver stars and was more impressed with the silver stars, but have been more impressed with my HID kit from techone.

so are the HIDs in the projectors really that good...
i love the HIDs in my stock headlights but i guess i would need to see them side by side to actually see the improvement.

Here is my highs and lows now that I adjusted them a little better...the highs are good, they are philips bulbs...I'll have to check the watts n what not to see how they compare to the others...but the lows are already silverstars (come standard)

LOWS



HIGHS
