If you just want the blue glow like me, just go and buy the cheapest most dark tinted bulb. I got some bulbs called euro xenon for 20 bucks. very very blue. but once I turn them on they don't match the hid's at all! but who cares I don't use them. just fo show!

I went with the Hiper Plazma Hiper Whites ($26/pair) from autotoys.com. They are darkly tinted blue to give you that reflection in your housing that you want so much. Plus, it looks cool when activated. I chose this over the Eurolites.

9005 is the correct number for the CL/TL high beams.

Those guys over on the TL board actually find a retailer
with the new Sylvania Silverstar bulbs ????????

I haven't been able to find these yet.

where can you get solaris highbeams for $35? or where can you get them for that matter. every local shop around here doesn't carry them. also, does the new silver star sylvania give that blue reflection? thanks

Try Optiblue Xenons $32.00/pair. They look pretty good in the light housing.
