Anyone running these yet?

Is there any truth to the rumors that they don't last very long?

 

Im running a set in my 06 Cobalt, Ill post about them when they blow. I had them in my z-71 and they lasted from nov 03 to june 04, but they are the best looking aftermarket bulb.

 

i had them on my LS they lasted for about 6 months i didnt touch them with my bare hands or anything like that to make them burn out faster

 

I just put a set in about three weeks ago

 

they suck, i had some and they arent even that white... i have vision x now and they are white with a slight blue tint and they run about $40. not sure how long they will last though...

 

I dont like them. I jsut bought 99 cent Xenon 9007 green bulbs on ebay. I like them. Got a good green tint and seem brighter then my stock ones. To each there own

 

I have them. The only real difference is a slight bit whiter, but everything looks more "crisp". Crisp isn't only for chicken anymore. Everything just sticks out a bit better. I had nokyas in my Cadillac and hated them. The GE Nighthawks were kinda like the Silverstars... But just half the price. I also had some eurolite ones in my Honda and LOVED them.

 

I'm gonna agree with him. I've had the silverstars in for over a year now in my RL, so not sure bout those that didn't last long.

 

Yeah, me either. I had my Eurolites in my Honda for like 2 years. lol. They were great. I want to find more of those! I'll post a picture of them later when I get home...

 

yup 9007 silvania silverstars
i spent and hour shopping for bulbs, 4 diff parts stores, these were the ones i liked the best (and no Kanji script on the box which is a plus)

they are 4000k color, very white

i had a set in my other car and never had to replace them

 

Eurolites. I liked the white with the very slight blue tint. You can't really see the blue in this picture though.

The car, for reference.

 

was wondering then i want brighter cooler looking headlight bulbs and i dont have the money for the hids which one would be best?

 

Don't get nighthawks, I bought a set 6 months ago and lost one on the way to work this morning. I don't know what kinda warranty they have either....good old Canadian Tire... :S

 

Drill a hole into you r a frame. Then put flood lamps in. Home depot 99$. They even have motion detection !!!

 

I bought my 9007 silverstars for my 97 ford escort a year and a half ago when i traded in that car for the cobalt i kept the bulbs and they are still running strong, my friends have the night hawks cause they are half the price and they are good too, but i do perfer the truer color spectrum you get from the silverstars

 

All I know is the Nighthawks were better than the Nokyas I had in the Cadillac before that. The Nokyas were flat-out blue. They were supposed to be white.

 

I had silver stars in my Ranger.... should have checked the part numbers before I traded.... darn things were 9007... nice white color... but I'm going with PIAA super whites for the 'balt.

 

silverstars are ok, but they dont last long
PIAA are the best bulb in my opinion, and ive tried them all
usually $60 for a set, and they have a lifetime warranty, just buy from a retail source, not some weird guy on ebay

 

I had a pair on my s-10 for 2 years, and now have been in my Cobalt for 6 months. Never had any burnouts or dimming....
