Anybody ever installed Silverstar Ultras?

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.

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...

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
