1990lumina Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Well I went ahead and bought Silverstar headlights for my Lumina last night. I got both the Low and High beams.....the low beams are quite a bit brighter....and the high beams are even better. I always thought my OEM halogens weren't yellow, but on a side to side comparison it was obvious the Silverstars had a dramatic more white light...and it was brighter by alot!! Anyway, I don't have any pics because I changed the lights out in the part's stores parking lot - great lighting is why I did it there. So if you have the extra money, and you're looking for a slight upgrade to your headlights I'd recomend Silverstars. And FYI - this isn'tsupposed to be a plug for Silverstars....just saying how happy I am with them and I would recommend them to other members!

1990lumina Posted November 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I hope mine don't blow up. I took special care not to touch the bulb to anything. I wore some gloves and carefully maneovured the bulbs down and put them into the leadlight assembly without touching them to anything, and they weren't touched to anything, so hopefully they should be okay. I originally planned on getting CoolBlues' for the low beams...but then said fuck it....even though the Silverstars were double what the CoolBlues' were...I can tell even in the day time when parking in a parking lot the headlights are much more "white" Damn I hope they don't blow up!!! I don't want to keep that mess up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I picked up a set of silverstars for my Ventura this week too, haven't stuck them in yet. They are the large 6" round sealed beam lights, and from what I've heard there's a bigger difference for the sealed beam ones, I imagine the glass has a nicer pattern as well. I'm not even sure if the bulbs in there now are halogen, they could be '77 vintage for all I know. Since i use the car mainly for barhopping in the country I want to be able to see the deer a little sooner. I had the sylvania cool blues in my CS for a long time, 2-3 years and loved them. They weren't the cheap dark blue tinted junk bulbs, they had a really subtle blue tint. I actually still have one in there but the other one was crushed in the accident last year and I haven't bought another one yet, I'm just running clear.
