Silverstar
Gotta ask ... compared to my Dodge Ram the JK's headlights destroy the truck ... Are the Silerstar headlight bulbs really brighter than stock or just a crisper light?

I would say both. Compared to the stock yellowish beam, the silverstars are definately more white, both brighter and more crisp. I have a 45 mile commute mostly mountain driving, and I'm always coming or going in the dark and I noticed the diferance the first day. My eyes are constantly 
for wildlife and I would say it's a good investment.

the silverstar bulbs overheated your connectors on the headlights? or do you want something brighter for your HELLA's?

my opinion is they are much brighter, and whiter.... there is a noticeable difference, but i just upgraded to a 8000 HID kit... The fogs are silverstars have a bit more yellow than the silverstar headlights..(HID's in this pic)

And, to add insult to injury, they don't last long because Sylvania has to put in a hotter filiment to compensate for the light output they lose from the bogus coating.
If anybody has bought these, don't feel stupid; I did too. But I know better now.
Read this for information on bulbs.
I have a pair of Phillips Vision Plus ready to go in my Jeep tonight.
