Silverstar Headlights

[Black Hoe]

Anyone running Silverstar headlights? I was thinking about upgrading from the stock bulbs and looking for input pro or con... Thanks.

I had them in a different car and they made a very large difference for me. A bit $$ though. IDK, I live in Las Vegas, it's day time every night though.

They are a good bulb for the money. I would go with PIAA bulbs if you are going to take the time to swap the bulbs. It is a real pain in the ass to change these bulbs

They were decent, kinda expensive.

I had them in my other car (Accord) and I don't think they really made that much of a difference. Don't know if I just got a crappy pair of bulbs, but they didn't last more than about 6 months.

Like others said.... these bulbs are not the easiest bulb to swap out. If you plan on changing them, save up a little cash and just invest in some HIDs. They will be well worth the money and effort to swap.

I got mine on AMAZON both sets shipped were only a little over $50... I also have them on my car for all the bulbs including the blinkers.... I like them alot... Nice and bright... the silverstar Ultras are anyway...

Check Amazon

I dont like them. I fell for the scam on my 06. They actually produce less light than stock. the blue coating makes them appear brighter but they are not, the coating reduces actual light. Consumor reports even proved this. Either get HIDS or stick to stock.

If they're $60 on Amazon (usually cheapest around) you're probably better off spending a little more and doing the HID convert. As for the other bulbs on the truck, may be worth it. I did the LED's for the license plate lights and they look super (lots of good comments from others too, that's how noticeable the LEDs are).

Thats why I switched. HID's blow away Silver Stars

 

[jmildoc]

I said that I got both sets on amazon for about $50. That was the HI and LOW beams... You cant beat that

I bought them for my trailblazer, and that's why I never put them in.

I had a set, liked them and then went to HID's tho....but good for plug and play.

Another good option for a great bulb are the Halo Icon bulbs. Come with a lifetime warrenty from Custom Creations. www.shopcustomcreatins.com I have them and I love them.

that coating again will just reduce headlight preformance. Only way to get brighter headlights is a different housing, higher wattage halagon bulb, changing the bulbs projection (like HIRS), Or just going HID.

I put them in our 2002 and they are really excellent, and for $50 they're a great alternative to HID's.

 

[OKLAGMCRUISER]

wait to buy them...save a little bit more and get HID's...you will NOT be disappointed.

I have them for both HI and LOW in my Impala and I like them. They are brighter, whiter and project longer than stock bulbs. They will burn out though. I would suggest not flashing the hi/low too much. If Tahoe lights are that hard to get to I don't know if I'd use them. Besides, last I looked they were not made for the '09 yet.

Does 09 use different bulb sizes? I have an 08 and someone sold me what they thought would be lows for mine but they were high. He said "well my book says this fits 07!" so I guess they change them up every year?

 

[Rollin Thunder]

from like 94-06 the low beams were 9006 and highs were 9005, in 00 the nbs fogs were 880.

from 07 up the lows are h11 and highs are 9005, fogs are ps24W.

I have hirs in both high and lows on my silverado and highs on the hoe they work great!!
