Thanx guys
I just bought some Silverstar Ultra's and new Foglight bulbs this week, both from ebay the foglight bulbs 9040 9050 9055 9140 9145 XENON HID FOG LIGHT BULBS | eBay , are very white and bright, although I have not used them at night yet, but compared to the how yellow the silverstar's are I was dissapointed (oh well only 32.50 shipped) so I ordered the same brand for the headlights, CHEVROLET CAMARO XENON HID HEADLIGHT BULB 2010 | eBay what the hell 13.95 shipped, (this link states 4.00 shipping but they have other listings with free shipping, probably cause of the Camaro in the title) the only thing I'm worried about now is if I should buy some ceramic plug adapters to keep my stock ones from melting from the increased heat from the bulbs, anyone else have any experience with these?

I just installed this ones that I bought on Ebay for 54+. They are amazing! They shipped them to me in three days. I like the fact that both the low beam and the highs are Xenon. The installation was a breeze and with hardly any alterations except a hole to secure the ballast. The only thing you might have to do is change the cables around connected to your existent headlight to adjust the polarity (high/low). The Ebay item is Bi-xenon HID KIT H4 H13 HB1 HB2 HB5 9004 9007 9008 9003 | eBay Make sure you specify the 9007 (Hummer Light bulb) and the intensity. I choose the 6000k for incredibly white lights. I liked them soo much I ordered the ones for my fog lights.

A couple 'inconsistencies' in your sales pitch:

1) H3 Hummers use H13 (9008) for the headlamps NOT 9007's you specified.
2) How did you order the fogs when they're not even listed (H10 9140/9145)?
3) 6000 Kelvin starts getting into a range with a slight blue cast, not 'incredibly white lights'
4) Are you REALLY a spammer??

No pitch here, no affiliation to the listing whatsoever. I just love the way the lights look on my H2. Why have a Hummer look cheap and not classy. Again, I have no affiliation with that listing and dislike spammer just like you do.

I live in Southern Cali and there is a trend going on which motivated me to install them. I'm doing the whole HID/LED conversion. I'm sorry for not being specific enough, I'm truly new to this. I have a 2003 H2. I had ordered a HID kit from Ebay which ha the HID for low and regular halogen for the high. My brother turned me into the previously mentioned listing. The Xenon is telescopic (motorized) so it utilizes the same bulb. I ordered the 55w H3 kit for my fog lights. They are on the way. I'll give you an update as to how they came out.
As far as regular light bulb is concerned, I have tried the plug ins and I personally didn't care for them, they burned out too quick. This kit is the real HID deal, they turn on low and increase the intensity in a couple of seconds, just like they are supposed to. I didn't want to compromise the classiness of our vehicles.

Your signature contains no details about your HUMMER, and you posted H2 information on the H3 forum. That's why your numbers didn't make any sense, and threw up the spammer flag.
