Silverstar bulbs

Hi, I just called up my autozone and they have the silverstar bulbs. The question I have is what type of the bulbs do I get for a CL's fog things. Do I get the 9005 model? Thanks

Is it worth the 50 bucks for the bulbs? or should I just go with polarg m6. Some ppl said they have a little burning on the housing, would that occur with silverstars also?

I think you are still confusing the fog light bulbs to the high beam light bulbs...

The 9005 (high beams) range from $25 (Nokya Arctic White) to Solaris (approx 4$65).

The fog bulbs (PIAA and M6) should be around $12ish...

What exactly are "SilverStar Bulbs"? Are those the bulbs with the SILVER reflective coating on the bulb part itself? What effect do they give off?

I have them.

Got them at Autozone for $25 each. They are better than the stock Stanleys, but probably not as good as the $65 Solaris.
