Replacement Head Lamp Bulbs
Anybody have any experience using the (new style I think) Sylvania Headlamp: Silverstar Ultra Halogen bulbs? (Part # 9005SU for High Beam, 9006SU for low beam)
If so, notice much difference in light output and quality compared to the OEM units?
Thanks in advance guys!
They're not the cheapest lamps but might be worth it if there's a noticeable output improvement!

I have used them for years, They are better over stock for sure, Are there better bulbs than Ultras...Yes. I like my Ultras.

Yes
I installed them over 2 years ago and they are better than stock. A hint....install all four with hi-beams. You will need to "Dremel" the little stub inside the socket of the bulb to fit the low beams but only takes a few seconds and you will have better light when on low-beams!
