Silverstars? I dont believe those are hids.

 

[Jweezy41]

[nytahoe]

[Jweezy41]

yeah i figured they werent nothing compared to the goods, but can i plug either of them into my fogs??

 

[soulsea]

If they are Silverstars they'll be much brighter than stock bulbs, but not nearly as bright as hid.

Oh and if they are SStars, make sure you don't touch the bulbs with your fingers ... it'll mess 'em up.

you have two standard hallogen 9007 bulbs. They are not HID, just standard capsule replacement bulb. If your fogs run 9007 then you can plug them right in.

This is what a 9007 HID looks like :

my fogs do, but which ones would i use for the fogs? the blue ones or the reds

I wouldnt use either for fogs

 

[nytahoe]

if u have a nbs its an 880 or a nnbs its a 5202

Blue or red it doesn't matter those are just o-ring colors. Blue is what Sylvania had available in November of 08, Red in August of 99.
Use the blue, its about a decade newer lol.

The one with the red ring is just a regular Sylvania 9007 bulb. The one with the Blue ring has a CB in the part number which stands for Cool Blue. Its will be whiter than the regular one, but not as good as a Silverstar. Regardless, you can't use either on your truck because none of your lights use a 9007 bulb.

 

[madrrio@hidguy]

your foglights run 5202 bulbs, so no you cant use them unfortunatley

yea i was going to say you got your self some stockers lol
