Silverstars are nice!!

Having stock HID would be nicer, but this is definetely a big plus over stock halogens.

Absolutely agree. I put these on my old '99 Mazda 626 and they were MUCH nicer then stock.

Dont get the silverstars, they may look nice, but they only last around 6 months...
(for me anyways)

I have had them on 2 of my other cars. One perhaps lasted like 7-8 months? The other set, well, one of them just burned out the other day. That one only lasted like 6 months.

Im going back to the regular halogens now..

just my experiences w/ silverstar

I've had my Silver Stars on since 10-04 with no problems. They were a little tricky to install. I would have much rather had HID's but my "8" was the base model. I can sincerely recommend them.

H7 is the correct size. They are definately a brighter white than the stock halogens. Only problem I came across is finding a set of side marker and running lights that match!!!
