sylvania silver stars



I use the philips xtreme power bulbs in my headlights. Best halogen nulbs that I have owned. By the way you can run HIDs in the aftermarket projectors. I used to when I had the spyder projectors. The company puts the notice on there just to cover themselves. Nothing will happen with HIDs in them.

HID kits seem to spread the light everywhere rather than on the road.

thats because H.I.D kits were designed to be used in projectors, i've even heard that its illegal to use them in anything other than projectors

I dont have spyders, I have the one with the 3 l.e.d.'s

i figured out why my light out put was bad wen i went to the silver stars. I didnt know they came in diff lengths. The ones that came with the headlights for low beam are shorter than the the ones for the hi beams. I had the long ones behind the projector, which actually placed it too close to the lens to work correctly. In the pic the long one is the hi beam and the short one is low beam

the long one is an H1 and the short one is an H3.

HID's are only legal if installed at the factory.

Retrofits are illegal as well, but no one will bother you if you have projectors and have them aimed correctly.

Ive had silverstars for over a year and compared to stock its worth the $35 bucks. More of a crisp light but my distance didnt change as much as they said.

All of the aftermarket projectors are halogen. But it is ok to use HIDs in them. Lots of guys use HIDs in them on this forum and on the others.
