    Put these in 2 Chevy trucks and a Nissan Murano and the improvement in the brightness and the clarity of the view is awesome! The lines on the road pop out and are razor sharp. The side view and the view down the road is improved 100%. Only cost, with the discount and the online discount, sbout $8.00 more than the stock replacement bulbs... Even with the shorter life these are worth it for the increased safety that the better veiw gives me especially of road hazards and animals!!! Excellent product and upgrade! One of the few upgrades that really show a big improvement over stock!

    Excellent light. Bulbs don't last.

    Installs easily. Increased brightness and light coverage. Very short life. Bulbs last about a year and vehicle only gets about 9000 miles a year. Very expensive, very short life.

          Comments about Sylvania SilverStar ULTRA TWIN Halogen Headlight:

          I ran these bulbs in my previous '92 Honda Accord for quite a while. Now, I'm using them in my '04 Honda Accord. Will never go back to conventional bulbs.
          Tried the regular SILVERSTAR before switching to the SILVERSTAR ULTRA'S.
          If you haven't tried these bulbs. I suggest you give them a try ! You won't be disappointed. They light up the sides of the road as well as the front of the road,,, SO much more then conventional high beam bulbs.
          I love Advanced Auto's ONLINE ordering feature. I ordered these online and picked them up along with another item for my car. Walked in, picked up, paid and was on my way in just a few minutes.
          Thanks Advanced Auto,, you guys are the best ! :)

            Ordered online to take advantage of a discount and picked up in the store. I had mistakenly ordered high-beam-only bulbs but the Advance employee got the correct bulb for me. Although only one was burned out, I replaced both bulbs because the new one was clearly brighter than the old.

I need to replace my OEM original bulbs because on low beam there is virtually little light. And, I want replacement bulbs that match the originals. I do not want to replacing bulbs frequently because of inferior aftermarket replacements.
