Headlight bulb brands... Posted by vsfoxe [Email] (#1025) [Profile/Gallery] (more from vsfoxe) on Tue, 21 Aug 2007 19:10:32 In Reply to: Re: Headlight bulb brands..., albany, Tue, 21 Aug 2007 11:02:25 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Started using Sylvania Silverstars 3-4 years ago. Saab 9-5 with DRL & Toyota Solara with DRL. Very high failure rate (3-6 months for both cars).
Luckily I got my money back from Sylvania for 4 bulbs, and Pep Boys for 2 bulbs! But the failure rate was totally unacceptable with Sylvania Superstars.
I am now using OSRAM Silverstars, available from Autobulbs Direct LTD ($32 per pair shipped). Supposed to live longer, nice white light. I would also recommend Phillips (oops! - forgot the model - I think it's VisionPlus). See Daniel Stern's Lighting website for more info, if you wish.
No - Osram Silverstars are not the same as Sylvania Silverstars, and are not sold in the US, I don't think.
