I am curious, but here is my real reason for asking this.
I was thinking that if anyone knows about good, high quality light alternatives to the regular bulb, a CPF member would know!
I am about ready to put a premium bulb set in my 2001 GMC Sierra, and really HATE these fake blue bulbs. They actually reduce the total amount usuable of light
I would love to put HID lighting, but that is over a thousand bucks.
Thought about putting some 80-100 watt lights, but can't find any good brands, and am worried about the heat.
Read only so - so reports about the DOT approved PIAA super white or hyper white bulbs, and they are very expensive.
So, I pretty much decided on this, unless there is a brand that yall can "enlighten" me on!
Sylvania SilverStar High Performance Halogen:

Yes, I see that it is blue, but it seems to generate a nice white color:
Standard bulb
Cool Blue (yuch!)
SilverStar:
The SilverStar is DOT approved. I have heard that lights purchased in Europe are much brigher, but not available in the states, and I need a 9005 and 9006 size, not one of those "H" size.
Any of our CPF members "across the pond" have any good internet sites to buy european versions of a 9005 and 9006 light?
So, any thoughts or suggestions?
