Philips Diamond Vision 5000K Bulbs

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=36476
Sucks that they don't make them in 9005 or 9006. I wonder if they are street legal given that they are 5000K...

Ok, here's an update. I have E-mailed the eBay seller and he said that there is another product called Philips Crystal Vision which operates at 4000K and comes in 9005 and 9006. This is probably Philips's answer to Sylvania's SilverStar bulb. The Crystal Vision runs at a normal wattage of 55w (low) or 65w (high). It's funny how Philips packaged the Crystal Visions. The packaging looks like PIAA and they claim that 60w/55w = 130w/120w which PIAA also claims in terms of kelvin temperature. He said he is currently out of stock on the Crystal Vision 9005/9006, but he will notify me once he receives them. Here is a link to the Crystal Visions...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2410276356
Any of you guys interested?

I get a kick out of how much those Japanese or Asian mechanics love using those cloth gloves

I forgot that the 1999-2001 TLs have no fogs as standard equipment. I was thinking that these bulbs may be good for foglights on the 2002-2003 TLs.

You can get a set of Silverstars at Kragen for about $40 and that's what I have and I really like them. That auction ended at $70+, hmmmm...........

I already have the SilverStars on my TL as foglights. I was just wondering how these new Philips Crystal Vision would perform compared to the SilverStars. Currently, the Crystal Visions are only available in Japan. I also have the PIAA Xtreme White Plus as headlights on my Accord and they perform just like the SilverStars. PIAAs are just way overhyped and overpriced.
