AWeb80 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 I stopped at O'reilly's to pick up just the low beam ones (which on Lukez34's page says is the 9006's), but they had packages that said "Cool Blue" on them.... Do I want the Cool Blue ones, or do I want the basic silverstars?..... Also, I want to put brighter Bulbs in the fogs....which ones do I get? TIA. Quote
turby Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 The cool blue bulbs suck for light output. Get the silverstars. I *think* you can get silverstar bulbs for the foglights also. Quote
AWeb80 Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Posted January 29, 2006 ya, but what is the part number for the fogs? Quote

Justin Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 The cool blue bulbs suck for light output. Get the silverstars. I *think* you can get silverstar bulbs for the foglights also. I've run cool blue sylvania bulbs in my Cutlass for years now and they are far better than stock bulbs. To me they're the perfect mixture of better vision and long bulb life. Quote
1990lumina Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 I have silverstars for both low and high beams - I was gonna get the coolblues for my low beams, but the store didnt have any lol.....silverstars are an upgrade over coolblues though as far as light output. Quote
Cam'ron Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 yeah what he said... as far as silverstars go its stock<cool blues<silverstars i use silverstars and the yare awesome i have a set of new eurodesigns 8500K HID xenon bulbs that i might put in to see how they stack up but i am not sure Quote

Cam'ron Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 huh? im confused, i didnt pay much for them so i might put them in and see how they look... worse cast i go back to the silverstars Quote
Cam'ron Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 these are the bulbs i have ready to go in has anyone used these... are they really any good, i think i paid under 30 shipped for the set so no biggie, i just hope they arent that blue when i put them in Quote
terryk2003 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 get the silverstars adam!...nametom, i had those bulbs for my foglights and they sucked!...maybe you'll have better luck with em... Quote
Cam'ron Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 yeah one of these days i will put them in, thinking i might start with just the highbeams, would give a kool look during the day with a bule tinted DTR or maybe i need some more sleep Quote

1990lumina Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 would give a kool look during the day with a bule tinted DTR I thought you didn't want the fogs with the blue tint on the lens...lol now you WANT that?? lol j/k Quote
terryk2003 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 would give a kool look during the day with a bule tinted DTR I thought you didn't want the fogs with the blue tint on the lens...lol now you WANT that?? lol j/k DTR= Daytime Running Lights ...dunno where u got the fogs thing from?... Quote
1990lumina Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 His other thread to find fog lights he said he didn't want anything with a blue lens...I just mentioned that now he wants a blue tint to his other lights....no biggy lol I was joking anyway Quote
AWeb80 Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Posted January 30, 2006 Got the silverstars in and they look GREAT. Took me ~30-45 minutes to do them, not counting the time it took the silicone to dry. .....now, just for some fogs..... Quote
Cam'ron Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 i already have the silverstars... but for the peice i am willing to try these other ones and see how they look... chances are they are too blue for my liking and i will go back to the silverstars... you are correct it is the blue lens i dont want on my car for the driving lights cause they would generally be off all day and i think a blue lens would look like ass, the headlights shouldnt really make that much difference if the light is a blue bulb diring the day.
