Anyone have any headlights better then silverstars?
I know silverstars give great white light but they super suck when it comes to life of the bulb. I know people who change them yearly and it simply to expencive to do that, when a set of bulbs cost $50. A regular par of bulbs cost only 20 bucks. So are there any aftermarket bulb makers that make clean white light as a fraction of that cost? |

I've been running on the same set of silverstar bulbs for the past um.... 6 years? They burn out because they get oil from your grubby little hands on them. I simply used the instruction manual in the box they come in to use as a sort of hot pad so that I never actually touched the bulb when installing mine. -------------------- '99 Celica GT - Sold
