wow - i was thinking about picking up some 9006 Silverstars for my low beam. All I wanted was a whitish light - it doesn't have to be blinding (otherwise I'd do the 9005 conversion). What 9006 bulbs other than the silverstars output a clean white light? Nokya artic whites? Damn bluish tint...the HID projector project won't start till spring/summer

email sylvania and tell them your problem... they replaced a pair of silverstars for me, they said they are trying to work the bugs out of them and try to perfect them, so they wanna know about any problems.

i might get 'em anyway if that's the case. I'm not a fan of any kind of tint in my headlights. As close to white as possible. Doesn't matter that much if they are really bright.
There was a long thread about the 9005 conversion...do a quick search on it, and I'm sure vxcl can drop some knowledge being the resident headlight expert

PIAAs are a total waste. total rip off.
The Sylvania Silverstars are nothing close to stock... put one stock bulb in and a silverstar in the other side and look at the difference. They are also DOT approved, no legality issues.

I've had my Nokyas for almost a year now, and they're still workin fine from the first day I bought em. Somethin must be wrong with yo driver's side headlight wiring or somethin legendaryCL98.
Anyways, just get HIDs! Trick all this bulb mess, save yourself the money in the long run and just get a projector conversion, like me, heh. They're comin REAL soon done by VXCL, watch out for pics. I bet you'll hardly ever need to use your highs after you get em.
