Does any one run Sylvania Silverstar Headlamp replacement bulbs. i just got a pair and they were $40. i was wondering if they are worth the extra cash. i am trying to postpone extra lights.

I like them, and I have had no breakage
problems as someone else has, even bashing
around at Occotillo Wells (sand washes at 50 MPH)

I bought them because I burnt out a stock H3 bulb. I only put one in at first and it looked funny because there was such a difference. Night driving has improved alot since I put them in.

I bought some mock off lights for $20 and they don't seem much brighter...instead of a yellow glare there is a blue one now.

Maybe the real stuff from Sylvania is better.

My buddy as a set of those on his VW and they are great. I am definitaly getting some when mine burns out.

They made a world of difference in mine, especially since the chrome is almost completely gone in my right headlight due to water.

From a driver's standpoint, they're the greatest thing since sliced bread. The drivers who have them aren't complaining about them. They light up the road markings much better.... You're driving at night, 'round a bend and � ouch! � you're staring down the barrel of high-caliber headlights boring right at you. Some creep left on the high beams, you grumble. But no, those are too bright, too white, almost blue, like an iceberg. What the heck are those lights? Can that much glare be legal? Isn't it unsafe? The lights are xenon-gas-ignited, high-intensity-discharge (HID) headlights, often known simply (and incorrectly) as xenon (ZEE-non) headlights. They are wildly popular with some motorists, and, if properly aimed, they are quite legal. I too have them on my truck and it's rare that I use the high beam. They would make for a killer back up light as well, but I haven't engineered that one yet.

No, you didn't.  Are they really bright?  Like, holly crap bright?  And how bright IS holly crap bright?  Did I mention that you mis-spelled HOLY?  

Definition: Holly Crap- the crap you find under the holly bush

Holly crap:  what carburetors do when they cease to function.
