Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Sylvania 9005 SilverStar Ultra Halogen Headlight Bulbs - High Performance Automotive Lighting (Pack of 2) by Josh Cardoso

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great headlights up to a year

I decided to try the Silverstar Ultra High glasses because I have poor vision and find it difficult to see at night. After reading the reviews I realized I had to use surgical gloves when installing the headlights. The headlights were very easy to install and I used gloves as it is well known that touching the bulb with your skin can burn out the light prematurely. The headlights were pretty bright. They're not even close to LED headlights, but they're ridiculously bright. These headlights are very bright by normal standards. I was very lucky to be able to see so far and wide at night. However, one of them burned out after about 6 months. I figured it might be something with my car or something and replaced it with another Silverstar. Then my other headlight burned out and I thought the bulbs had a very short lifespan. In a year and a half, 2 pairs of these headlights burned out. They are quite expensive so I didn't buy this style again because it's not worth it. I have switched to stock Sylvania headlights which are about 1/6 the price of the ultra tall headlights and have worked for over 2 years. This is a great product but it won't last long. I would not recommend this product and would recommend buying the stock headlights.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Legacy model
