Default sylvania silverstar bulbs

just bought a set of these for the rex and they look pretty damn bright, it says they are 4100k aand that the lowest hids are 4300k so these are close. They are a lot better than any other bulbs I've used, they increase visibilty about twice as far down the road as my stock bulbs did. I would recommend them to anyone that doesn't want to spend a lot of $ on real hids...

Cool, I saw those and wondered how good they were. I need bulbs cause I'm blind at night.

I got a set of these in my CRX also and I must say they are some of the BEST bulbs I have EVER used. Awesome light span, and color. Not chessy blue ****, just a nice, BRIGHT, white color. I got mine for $40 at checker. You can get them at basically any auto parts store.

I just bought some for my GF's 96 EX coupe and they are very nice. Good light span and they are very bright. I'd recommend them.

I got mine from autozone, $19.99 each. They were worth it IMO. Has anyone seen or used these bulbs I also saw at autozone, they were the 1194(go in the front corners) led style bulbs with 4 small amber leds for each bulb....I was going to buy them but they were $9.99 a pair and I would need 2 sets, so I passed for now, anyone know if they are any good?????

i bought some hyper whites -$20 for the set- or whatever at autozone ... they are a good white, but not very bright - how much brighter are they over the yellowish stock ones (that's about how mine are)

Last week I bought some of those LED corner bulbs. They look really good! Brighter than the regular bulbs. And 2 days ago I went and picked up some 9005 Silverstars and made them fit the 9004 plugs. VERY BRIGHT!!!! I love them. I was thinking of maybe buying the PIAA yellow bulbs for my high beams but I'm not sure yet. Is that Ricey? Any way the Silverstars get a from me

I went with the RAYBRIGs which have a 5000k light/ 100w output but only run on 53 w (stock is 55w) They actually make the Silverstars look yellow.

I just bought a set but haven't put them in yet.

If anyone needs the rebate form, e-mail me.

I got it somewhere, can't remember where, otherwise I'd put the link.

PDF format.
