I had them on my car. It is a little brighter but the white light makes it seem like it's hella bright. After 2 months they burnt out though.

I would go with the JDM headlight bulbs!!! I got the silver stars, and to me, it doesn't seem bright at all. You'll pay a little more, but its worth it if you want it to be kinda bright.

I have silver star on my WRX, and I was disapointed at first
You guys seen the magzine ads right? a blue WRX with silverstar bulbs
Its so white and bright
When I install them on my car... well, its like stock just brighter :?

JDM bulb I guess they are Raybrig, PIAA, RAZO, and other Japanese manufacture

Tell you the truth, go with cheap one if you want to white color
I personaly don't think those $60~$100 bulb are any better otherthan last a little longer.

Go with procarparts bulbs, we have new bulbs that came in in 55W so they last longer and looking at only $10 to $15 a pair

I have those for my fog lights and they are so far pretty good

Or I can get you guys those JDM bulb for cheaper price just PM me

If you can do that, it would be great. It won't be too long before I need them for rainy nights, so any help now would rock!

Not to threadjack here, but honestly... I've bought my yellow headlight bulbs from Summit Racing, and everyone in my local area seems to think that my bulbs are the brightest bulbs out.

They are a hotter bulb, which burns hotter thus brighter. But I think I paid $30/pair.

www.summitracing.com

If you don't see the bulbs on their site, give them a call directly. I think my bulbs were like 90low/100high.

I'll have to check my civic tomorrow to make sure.

Just another route to go.

The Silverstars definitely turn the color more towards BLUE, which produces a "cooler" look as well as making roadsigns reflect more.

For me, they produce an annoying glare

I'd use the Phillips Xtravision.
