Why don't you try this seller from Ebay,I just bought 1 for my H2,they're awsome and pay only $3 plus $8 shipping.:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-04-05-06-Hummer-H2-HID-Xenon-Light-Bulbs_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ36476QQihZ008QQit emZ180060424329QQtcZphoto

I finally got around to buying these they are AWESOME much better than my SILVERSTARS!!!
i wanted to see the diference between them so i had on silverstar and one of these when both were turbed on the SILVERSTARS looked YELLOW compared to these. For 11 dollars total ( unlike 40$ silverstar/ silverstar ultras) you get a pack of two High/ LOW beam 9007 bulbs that work better than anything you can get at autozone. i highly recomend these are the best. the brightness is at 5900K!! BETTER BULBS+ BETTER PRICE = BEST DEAL

Those are 100W bulbs, are you sure your wiring harness can handle that much current. Seems like I've read about some folks who tried these high powered bulbs without ballasts and smoked their wiring harness after some time. I'd keep an eye on your wiring harness running that hot of a bulb. I think factory bulbs are in the 40 watt range, at least for the H3.

I have the SilverStar Ultras on mine and they're whiter and brighter than OEM which were looked a little yellow. Also, the Ultras are supposed to last longer than the stock Silverstars.

i dont think there should be a problem with the wiring harness, what wattagedosilverstar ultras shine at?
i usully drive during the day but yea i have to keep an eyeout on the wiring cause i feed the neons from the head lights so they can only be at night so i dont drive by accident with them on during the day.

I tried those bulbs when I first got my rig, and they do look whiter, howeverI found they burn out quite fast,I went through two sets in under 60 days... I have been running Silverstars now for 6 months.

I hope you have better luck than I did...

I think the Silverstars are in the 40-60 watt range.

Normal night driving, a few hrs a week. The bulbs seemed to burn out one by one. I purchased two sets, and as one bulb burned out (approx 1 every 2 weeks) I would just replace the one culprit, until unfortunatly I was down to one bulb... [:@]

Good luck to ya!

Dyno test results are in - I got an extra 10hp out of the Ultras (just flip on the high beams when the readings are being taken- he is sure to add at least 10hp to get them turned off).

Seriously, not 'yellow' light at all- very pure and very bright.
