anyone try those cool blue headlights?

[jboyce]

i went to autozone and picked up some cool blue headlights and threw them in, i notice they are a little whiter instead of yellowish, but no big diff, deff not blue. just wondering anyone elses experiences with these..i payed $30 for both lights. is there a certain brand i should buy, or something else i should do to make it brighter?

yeah i had those lights 'cool blue' by philips it was. They were alright got rid of the yellowish, and the output was respectable but they burnt out so i put my oems back in. See, you know the things with these bulbs is your never going to achieve better output compared to stock with these bulbs cause the coating, it only looks like it may.

I agree dude.. I like the Silverstars myself. They don't have the nasty 'yellow' in them. They're bright. And most importantly, they're not blue!
Blue lights get you a lot of tickets here in Canada. It's better not to stand out from the rest of the traffic, or you WILL get bothered by the local 'smokey's'.
If you're gonna go blue, go real HID or go home! Heheh

A friend put those in her van after her Eurolite Crystal high wattage bulbs burnt out thinking those would be blue too and they still looked yellow. She used the Sylvania cool blues.

silverstars, HID's, or bust

i heard silverstars burn out real quick

The main problem with silverstars is that they have to overdrive the filament to achieve the desired output of a stock bulb, while still maintaining the blue tint. Basically a silverstar compensates for the blue tint with more output. Which in turn lowers the hours the bulb can shine.

From what I've seen/heard silverstars are hit or miss as far as longetivity.

You want brighter get a HID retrofit...

You want white get Silverstars

You want blue get APC (not kidding these are the bluest on the market from what I've seen)

Polarg Shining Wizards or HIDs or nothing as all!!

I tried the cool blues and I saw no significant change in my lighting so I took them back..Now I have silverstars and I love them....and alot cheaper than a hid retrofit for now...Good luck!

my silverstars have last for about a yr now with no problems. I did the 9005 conversion and they look great, awesome output with blackhoused OEMS. Just be sure to not touch the bulb itself, which the grease from your skin can effect the longetivity of the bulb.

i have the silverstars also no problems yet and they look great and shine the road alot better!!
