Did it happen to be the autoshow right next to the CN? I was there last year about this time (Feb 12th - 13th to be exact), and saw all kinda of neat stuff I don't see over here in the US.
One guy said something about some of the tires and some lights you guys have up there that are available in Canada only, as they are not approved by our DOT. SO maybe these lights will not see the US.

I have these in my Mom's Explorer Sport Trac. I replace the Silverstars she had with those. I didn't notice much of an improvement, but then again it isn't my vehicle so I don't drive it. I would notice if it was in my car, but I have HID. The price was better than the silverstars however.

I've got em in my 4Runner, got as a gift. Like someone mentioned...they are cheaper than the Silverstars. When compared to the Silverstars, I can't see too much of a difference. The Silverstar's seem just a bit more blue than the Nighthawks, which give off a pretty good white light. I'm not a fan of the little blue tint, so I like the Nighthawks. Probably a bit brighter than stock too.

I have Silverstars HLs and I did the driving light bulbs too and with the Silverstars you can actually tell you have the driving lights on unlike the stock bulbs but I do want some real fogs sometime.
