Does anyone have pics posted with the silverstars at work? I'd rather not spend $400-$800 to convert. I would like the look but, I drive country roads when it'* dark. Do they work well? What about our fog lights? Any good ideas for those?

silverstars are better than stock. you wont get a true HID look, but it is a cheap upgrade.

I do, but my sight is down at the moment. I think BonneMeMn has a series of shots showing normal lights versus SS'*

i have the silverstars and they are deff. better the stock i like them but like everyone has said there is no replacement for HID. im really thinking of one of the conversion kits but i have a quick question (not trying to steal the post or anything) but with the low and high beams at 400 a piece do you think i could just get away with the low beams b/c they seem really bright and if there that bright then the high beam must be blinding

this place is cheaper, A Friend of mine just got a set of 12000K lows for his car and yes it makes his high beams about useless I would go with something smaller like the 8000K or 10000K for the lows than get the 12000K for the highs.
