because the 9005's have a lot more lumens. and no cap on the top..which is good if you have projectors..

i plan on getting silverstars for the s14, even though it probably wont help much, but too poor for hid right now, i need bigger turbo first

mtk, alot of us have tried that 9006 > 9005 (not on the s14, but on previous cars) and it usually ends up melting the socket or something likes to screw up.

those bulbs are only 19.99 each at autozone, so you would be paying 40 bucks for a pair. Better then gettin them on ebay, for like 31 bucks, and 10 dollar shipping.

Don't do this conversion if u don't have deep pockets. you'll got through a set of light each year with this done. but the silver stars are great!
