I had PIAA extreme white bulbs ($80) and one of them burned out after a couple of months :( , what a piece of junk. Anyway I was driving around with one stock yellow and the other one white. So I went to Tognotties (a big autopart store in Sac) looking to get some silverstars, but all they had was APC. So I bought APC super white bulbs for $35. Is anyone else using these? I know a lot of people are running Sylvinia Silverstars, I am just wondering if I bought another crappy pair of headlight bulbs that will burn out in a couple of months.

If you don't wanna pay the extra shipping charge or waiting time from Jen Liu (suvlights.com), try buying them at Kragen. They offer the same price and same rebate.

damn that sucks. i just checked the sylvania site and it says: Call Now! Call Now! Get one set at $49.98 and the second set is half-off. 50 bux for a set?!? that means ur spending 75 for 4 bulbs. you'd be better off buying a set and getting the 10 dollar rebate.... what a rip.
