Question What are the best non-hid replacement halogen headlight bulbs for our vehicles?

I am looking to replace my headlight bulbs and was looking for suggestions on a reliable brand. What are you all using?

I got Xenon 8500Ks for the full set from ebay as well, lifetime warranty and under $40.00. In two years, only one headlight low beam went, shipped it back and got a new one free.

DO,

Are these that you mention much brighter than the stock setup? I would like to rid myself of the yellow/brown beam that I now have. Thanks in advance.

I too went with the Sliverstars for lights and Fogs, this is more then enough light then you will ever need and its a quality product. I have tried ebay lights before and had some bad ones due to shipping..

Silverstar Ultras they claim 40% more light, but shorter life than stock bulbs
And DOT approved

How long have the Ultras been lasting you guys? From reading reviews on them it doesn't sound like they last very long.

Anyone try the Plasmaglow Krypton bulbs? I see they have a 10 year warranty.
