Product Description

Sylvania SilverStar 55-Watt High Performance Halogen Headlight is fashioned for brighter and whiter light. It has dual filament for both high beam and low beam. This operates with internal gas pressure which significantly reduces the rate of tungsten evaporation. Its analogous non-halogen incandescent lamp operates the same filament temperature with greater luminance and efficiency. This combined effect of higher pressure and the halogen cycle give halogen lamp much longer life.

I have had these in for about 13 months and no problems. Allthough I do know how to correctly install. DO NOT TOUCH THE BULB GlASS!!! The finger oil will severely shorten the life span.

I have a set of the Ultras in my Dodge Ram. I put them in the truck Dec 2008. I do roughly 6 months of night driving a year (I work at night, not to mention it's dark for most of the winter here in Alaska). I put roughly 30,000 miles a year on the truck. They are still working fine.
Temps down to -40*.

I got a pair of these lights in August 2009 for my 2007 Honda CR-V to get a little boost to the lighting (and the better looks). After installation i turned the lights on and only saw a slight difference (mostly in color) from a slight yellow to a nice white. Only after i started driving did i notice a bigger difference, which included the brightness (increased range).

Supposedly Silverstars have a short lifespan (less than a year) but they haven't burnt out yet and i drive fairly frequently at night. Proper installation is critical to bulbs, especially ones that burn hot. Any oil/sweat from hands on the bulbs significantly shortens their life span so i used rubber gloves to avoid that, guess it paid off. Happy with my purchase and will purchase again once these (and the spares i bought) run out!
