Silverstar Ultra Only!

I wanted to see if anyone had any pics of these bulbs on their truck. I know that most people say there is no blue to the headlight. I was wanting a pic or two from in front of the truck with the lights on. Maybe 15 to 30 feet away looking at the truck. If anyone can help that would be great.

Sorry about the delay I got side tracked. I took quite a few from different distances and angles they are in my gallery in The Big One. I also have a heavy duty wiring harness with the low/high beam option frome Pure Diesel Power installed I really like this setup. I drove my dad's 2002 F250 to Pa and back a few weeks ago and those stock lights on his were lacking.

You guys think that they are worth the money. Can you tell a big differenct with them. I replaced the stock lights 3 years ago with the Sylvania XV and I could see a nice improvement over stock.

I am convinced that the SilverStars are worth the cost.

I replaced stock headlights on four vehicles and each one is an improvement.

Putting the 9005 in the foglights adds wattage.

I feel the same way. I drive a lot at night pulling a boat. The extra peace of mind is worth the extra money in my case.

Another vote yes on the value of the Silverstars. They made a lot of differance, but the wiring harness upgrade really made the Silverstars shine.

Silverstar Ultras a definitely a plus. I noticed a big difference over the stock lights. Look on ebay - they are definitely cheaper.

I got mine from a fellow member (Kris) when he updated his headlights.(thanks again, Kris) Several of our site sponsors sell them for around $50-60 dollars. Takes about 15min to install.

Yeah, I think you can get that kit plus the bulbs for less than $100.

Silverstars here too on the factory harnesses. For myself, I don't really need anything more. Very bright.
