Just wondering if anybody has or knows where to get them for replacement bulbs. I have a 94 tracker.

YOUCAN TRY EBAY...BUT SOME ONE MENTIONED BEFORE THAT THEY BURN OUT RATHER FAST   ANYONE HAVE THEM....

At any auto parts store.  If you live in Canada, Canadian Tire has tons of them.

I've actually done some research on this and I would go with Sylvania Silverstars. http://www.sylvania.com/auto/silverstar.htm They give you better lighting without causing problems elsewhere. They're available at Wal-mart, Autozone and Advance Auto around here for about $19 a piece.

thats what i put in my wifes car from wally world about 39.00 for the pair, talk about bright they kick some butt, been in there only 6 week's or so will let ya know if they burn out! p.s.  I live on a dirt road full of pot holes just a little over two miles worth so when she drives home from work at night that should be a real good test plus we are in the snow line so it is cooooooold here most of the time.

I put some of the fake ones I got at target in mine (the crappy light blue looking ones) and I'm honestly disappointed.  They need to have more actual light output than they do because of the bluer spectrum they emit.  The human eye is more sensitive to the red end of the visible spectrum and to get the equivalent lighting effect with a blueish light you need more overall output.  

I have heard good things about the silverstars though, when I replacce these I'm probably going to give those a try if I can't put some real HIDs in cheaply.

If you want real HID lights you're going to have to fork over about 500-600 bucks for a conversion kit that has the ballasts/stepup transformer packs and the true HID bulbs.  

On the bright side (if you'll excuse the pun) other than right when they first fire up they actually use quite a bit less power than conventional halogens (something like 35% or so).  Unlike putting in a high wattage bulb, a real HID conversion wouldn't require upgrading the wiring, just splicing it in to what's there.

Technically they're not DOT legal because they don't have autolevelling devices but If you keep them aimed politely I doubt you'll catch too much flak for running them.

If by some chance you could find a totalled car with oem HID's, you could probably pull the balasts out and adapt them to work in any car but you'd still need the 6004 or whatever they are we use true HID bulbs to finish the job.

Thanks, thats exactly what I was looking for.

Silverstars are the best in a test I read.
I took a chance at Wally Mart when I got
some Xeon gas filled bulbs, the light output
is OK but the pattern is bad, I don't like
the way it spreads, I think I'm going to take
the Xeons back and exchange for Silverstars.  

I upgraded to 9004CB (Sylvania Cool Blue) bulbs. The Silverstars are great but I had to compromise for $$'s sake. The light isn't as white as the Silverstars but it is noticeably whiter than standard 9004 halogen bulbs.

Don, y'all

Funny, that's how much they cost up here too, in CDN funds...  Wait, $19 for just one bulb or a pair?

OOPS, nevermind, we have the COOL BLUE ones.  Their not the same lamps.  

I have one silverstar and one regular one.  I only have one silverstar because one burned out about a 2 weeks after installiation and I wasn't going to pay twenty bucks for a replacement.  I can't tell the difference betweent the regular and the silverstar with both installed.   So save your money cause the difference ain't that great, unless you need the reassureance buying these lights may provide.

I;ve been running PIAA Xteme Whites (H4) in my GV for about 3 years.  These are real PIAAs and not the knock-offs.

One word.  Awesome.  Difference is night and day.  Many flash me thier brites when I head there way.  My high beams scar retinas.  If they hogh beam me back, I just kick on the 85w PIAA 820's and 100W PIAA H1's in my Cibie lights.  That ends the bright light fight.

Also, if a PIAA ever burns out, they replace them, free.  Forever.

But the $75 price a high.  But you pay for good stuff.

Bob has Sliverstars, and the PIAAs are way brighter, and more pure white/less blue tint.

Yeah the whole reason I bought the Silverstars was because I saw an older Surburban with really bright lights, HID style.  I knew it wasnt a HID setup cuase it was a pretty old surburban like mid 90's.  I figured they where silverstars, but I guess they might have been the PIAA lights you are talking about.

I think bright lights are fine but if you are routinely getting people signaling to you that they are too bright it would be a better idea to adjust them down rather than get off on brighting them back. (they think they are just signaling and you think you are in a Bright light war.  Sounds awefully juvenile to me.)  People who have the attitude that whatever I do is fine even if it is a hazardous to others are a danger to society.  I would hope those who frequent this board are a little more courteous to other drivers who have kids and loved ones as passengers.
