i used to have them way back in the day before i got the silver stars. they were ok. but the silverstars are definitely better. i gave them to a friend cuz his bulbs died but yea they didn't last too long. at least not as long as my silverstars

Some of the better bulbs I ever used.

Btw, I bought the Silverstars too like everyone else, however I returned them unsatisfied for spending $30 per bulb and having subpar performance.

i had a set of apc bulbs that i bought when they first came out about 5 years ago. Finally blew back in October right before i wrecked my last car. I wouldnt reccommend the ones from pep/zone/or advanced. There pretty much regular halogen bulbs in a pretty package. Trust me.

i was also talking about headlights. I originally paid 40 for mine and only had to replace one last October. Had them for like 4 years in 2 cars.

o i was talking about corners... didn't even know APC made headlight bulbs! if headlights, then i've only had experioence w/ PIAA and NOKYA... didn't really like either of them, but if i had to pick, i'd go w/ PIAA super plasmas again.

APC bulbs blow out quick because they are actually tinted... They also make them like 100/150 to get it brighter but they fry your harness

My APC bulbs lasted for a long time, and never melted or damaged the harness either. Great Bulbs IMO.

I'm posting here because I didn't want to start a new thread, but I'm just curious...

Anyone who has taken pictures of their headlights at night, please post pictures of the headlight itself, and of the light projected onto a wall. I'm dying to know what certain brands look like, namely the Arctic Purples. Also, anyone with experience with higher wattage bulbs, like 100W, please speak out. Do they really compare to the brightness of HID at all?

Lastly, there are some $70+ halogen bulbs out there that I've heard raving reviews for. Anyone have experience with these?

Thanks.


I guess I can kick off the picture display with my pics of the EuroDezigns New Blue headlight bulbs, running at normal 55W.
