What corner bulbs do you use with silverstars?

Just wondering what you guys use for your corner bulbs with silverstar headlight bulbs. I found a source for true 100/80 watt silverstar bulbs. The only problem is I cannot find corner bulbs to match.

Silverstars don't make the corner bulbs - I asked the same question a few years ago
I just ended up buying normal corner bulbs and even now with stock headlight bulbs they look a bit yellow :pat:

You can put 921 bulbs in there. They are about twice as bright as the 168's that came stock. The 921's can be found at any autoparts store.

Where did you find the 100 watt Silverstars?

NICE
Thanks for the heads up!

Just a quick question though... are you running this now?
If so, how long have you had it?

Yeah I've had them in my front corners for a couple of years now. They simply plug right in.

Just wanted to know if there were any downsides to it (blown bulbs, etc)

I've had no problems with them in the corners and they've lasted all this time.

I also put them in my 3rd brake light. I really wouldn't recommend this though because about 6 months later, I noticed the plastic lense was melting ever so slighly where the bulbs where.
