CAR GUYS...best replacement headlight bulbs...which are brightest
 

looking to replace the headlight bulbs on my boxster (i need H7). My current lights are the originals but they are starting to not be as bright or perhaps i am loosing my mind...either way i want to replace.

my questions is this: i do not want to change to HID lights since its going to be over $3K to do so.... i see these really high powered lights by sylvania (ultra performance) and another similar name for a bulb by Philips. Anyone here know which bulbs wil give the most light....???

Thanks in advance!

i dont know if the night hawks will fit, but the guys doing highway night driving up here swear by them.

thanks so much. didnt know of these bulbs... a lot of the stores by me seem to be pushing the sylvania... reading up on this bulb now and i see they have a H7 : )

i saw a commercial last night on SpikeTV for the new philips bulb and they were claiming to be the best....

oh man, what i read so far seems this bulb is in canada and not US????

Don't waste your money on the Sylvania silver stars or whatever they are...I'm dumping these already and getting a real HID conversion kit for my Jeep.

do u have the silver star ultra or just the regular silver star?

Those are good ones. Whatever you do don't touch the bulb, If you didn't know that already. The oil from your hands could cause it to blow it up.

Uh HID kits cost $50 - $150 depending on which kit you get.

I just did h7 in my jag for $100

here ya go on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/XENON...2em118Q2el1247

I was going to mention that but i figure if he isnt doing it himself a shop working on that car would charge that to change the spark plugs......

putting those in porsches and jags with halogen patterns is just strait up wrong, i can understand people with accords and civics dropping those in. but in reality halogen reflectors aren't made for hid's, u might as well just put ur highbeams on and drive like that.

I like the silverstars a lot actually. Have them in my Jeep too. Make sure you get headlight polish for your lenses to get rid of any residue and fading. Silverstars are WAY brighter than standard bulbs without being overly annoying to oncoming traffic. :2 cents:

the way to get HID in my car, quoted by 2 shops was $3k and change...

Here you can see the difference between me getting the $100 kit and doing it the right way for $3,000
