H13 Xtravision installed

I got H13 Xtra-vision by Syliana (spell?) and its noticeable gain brigther, you can see a bit farther and view is better than stock bulbs..
Bought it from Pep boys.
I think its worth it.

Of course i asked about 9008s Silverstar and they said its not avaible yet ..

Later!

whiter than regular bulbs. brighter/whiter look to the road at night. as for your question... what' the big deal.... here's a quote from another forum

The H13 (9008) will not be available in the SilverStar option. The National Highway Traffic Safety Board has specified that this particular lamp cannot be coated; therefore it cannot be offered in the SilverStar upgrade.

im sure someone will find a way around this. and on my other car we converted our 9006s to 9005s by changing out the plugs for the bulbs. increased lights but not glare since the 9005s has the caps on them. i will go take a look and see if i can come up with something.
