Silverstar Question
 

For those of you who upgrade to silverstar bulbs has anyone had one burn out? If so how long did you have them before the burn out? Or if you have them without any problems, how long have they been in? Are you all still happy with them?

Were they hard to install?

:iagree: i installed mine in early december of 06 and so far not problems. install was pretty straight forward. A little difficult for the fogs because you gota reach in a bit, but still pretty easy.

5 minutes to install... good up grade, not willing to call them a great up grade but well worth the $$$

Re: Silverstar Question
 

I have them in my H3 and no problem yet about 4 months now, but the wife has them in the trailblazer and they burn out about 6 months later. Same with dads silverado he actually went back to the stock bulbs. I like they light they throw but I am about to go back to the stock bulbs too if this keeps up.

Re: Silverstar Question
 

Has anyone found a brighter back light replacement?

I looked at the Slyvania site and they show 3157LL - I don't think it's any different from the stock ones.

Thanks for all the input. I think I'm going to give them a shot. If they burn out maybe the Ultras will be out by then.

I was also looking at some HID kits on ebay, some kits are as low as 129 bucks. I never got any good feed back from anyone so I think I'll pass. Its probably a "you get what you pay for" type of thing.

I had one Silverstar go out in less than a year. Ultras are out and that's what I upgraded to a few weeks ago - from Autozone

Re: Silverstar Question
 

Really? Do they have both H10 and H13 in Ultras?

Re: Silverstar Question
 

i have an 07 h3. brights are horrible. could you tell me the designation of the bulbs i should get, from where, the cost, and is installation and setting easy, or should i have a shop do it? tia!

Re: Silverstar Question
 

H13 for headlamps. Simple reach behind headlamp assembly, turn connector with bulb attached and pull out.

As for Ultras. I received an email from Sylvania that they will not have Ultras in H13 till late summer. I was in Advance last week and they only had Silverstars no Ultras.:confused:

Re: Silverstar Question
 

what kind of bulb does the fogs take? i wanna throw in some more HID's

Re: Silverstar Question
 

has anybody tryed the H13XV XtraVision, it says they are 20% brighter? are those the same as the ultras?

Re: Silverstar Question
 

No, they are not the same, and they are, in my opinion, no better than stock. I did try them while waiting for Silverstars to appear on the market.
