I got my "euro" silverstars from the UK today, i have yet to switch them out but i hope for good results, heres a pic, they have clear glass unlike the US version which has a tint

 

who makes that?

 

How much from the UK?










Craig.

 

Osram who owns Sylvania, but the Sylvania US version is different, and of a lesser quality

 

they were 27.95 to my door, i got them off of powerbulbs.com which is located in the UK

 

Wow, not to bad. Let us know how they work out.

I knew there was something suspicious about my Silverstars! Damn imposters!

 

um...it kinda says who on the box.

 

ship them to states!

 

well, i put one in and left the US spec silverstar in the other headlight and pulled up to a white garage door, the euro version is about the same brightness, but is more yellow than the US silverstar, if you guys want i could take pics, but i think that i could see things better than the US version, so, the final decision is that i like the euro silverstar better than the US version, but the US version looked more "whitish/blue" than the euro version which looks more like a standard headlight

 

I dont know about the silverstars, but my favs are the Hella Optilux Extreme XP bulbs, they are xenon. I had them in my civic, but pulled them when i sold the civic, and put normal bulbs in, cuz i liked them so much. They appear brighter, and ALOT whiter than stock bulbs. When i say white, i mean WHITE. They probably are not any brighter, but just the way that the human eye interprets the light because of the color, it appears brighter. They are sittin here in my room, i need to get the hella conversions for the H4 bulbs from sealed beam to use them on the truck. But they were $16.89 a piece, so $33.78 subtotal, and shipping was $6.50, so they were $40.28 to my door. And that is from www.rallylights.com which is Hella's online store. (Susquehanna Motorsports) Anyways, just my 2c.

 

morphiasx have you looked at the offerings on ebay? are do you want the real hella stlye conversion lamp housings? i have some projector style from www.procarparts.com and they arent the greatest, but are a marked improvement over the stockers... and they look cool... i would get regular diamond clears if i had the option again though

 

Jimabena, thanks for the offer, but i would rather not spend the money on cheaper ones, trying not to cheap out on the stuff for the truck. I think im just gonna save my pennies for the hellas
