I have used these headlights and all my cars for years now they are excellent. I don't know what some of the reviewers are talking about. They are without a doubt much brighter than the stock headlights that come in my cars. There's one caveat about them they only last about 2 years and then they tend to burn out. They last twice as long as the regular silver stars so in my opinion it's not bad. I'm thinking about trying the newer sle's but I haven't tried them yet so I can't really comment about them. Hope this helps anybody that's thinking about buying them they are very good.
I ordered based upon the recommendation of the Find Your Bulb tool on the website. Unfortunately, I didn't know that the bulb was wrong until it was out of the blister pack and about to be plugged in. That's when I discovered that the bulb and the connector were incompatible. Can't return an open blister pack, so I'm the proud owner of two useless bulbs.. :-(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I knew it was time to replace my 1999 Honda Accord EX V6 OEM headlights. Although, they were the originals after twenty years, it was time for an upgrade. It is true, things appear much brighter/ whiter, and I do see further down the road. I also keep my OEM lens spotless. These or any other lights are not going to show improvement if you have cloudy lenses. You're just illuminating the film that has built up over the years. I do have a concern. I wanted to update my high beams in my '99 Accord. The product number concerns me. 9006 is for low beam, and 9005 is for high beam? This is what is documented on the website. However, 9005's do not state whether high or low. Are these Halogens interchangeable? Oh yes, you will be receiving an email from me. Right after I complete this review.
The product itself was fine. Packaged and came quickly. But it was the wrong bulb. I input the information about my car and the answered the questions to find the right one for my car, but it ultimately wasn't. I reached out to return but because I had opened it (only after opening didn't I realize it wasn't the right type) I was ineligible to return.
Sylvania Silverstar is the OEM supplier for most auto manufacturers. Great visibility excellent products if you're looking for OEM fit and function Silverstar Ultra is a great replacement. I've only installed Silverstar Ultra since 2008 I have an entire fleet of vehicles 99 of them for the company I work for they are all equipped with Silverstar Ultra
I always see cars on the streets with really bright lights. I bought these thinking these was the ones and since the website says you can see the farthest out with these. But these are the worse headlights they were not bright AT ALL! In fact I almost got in an accident because i was driving in the rain and I couldn't see anything with these light bulbs. I will never buy again. I don't want anyone to almost get in an accident because they can't see like I did, so please don't buy. Save yourself the money & get something brighter.

Does not fit my 2006 GMC envoy XL which it says it does and I was also told that at the parts store,so i drive all the way home 45 minutes take it apart. I'm a female that's never worked on a car in my life. Get it all taken apart and it doesn't fit. So now I get to drive back 45 minutes without a headlight !! really stupid.
