I am still a big fan of the Phillips Blue Vision bulbs I run in my car. They are very bright, supposedly long-lasting, and won several awards. I think I paid about $45 for the pair, so not exactly cheap, but much brighter than my stock pieces were.
Do you remember where you got them? One of my Silverstars burned out last night (yes, after only 5 months) and I don't want to gamble with another pair. I think I may give the BlueVisions a try.

Yea, if you don't have projectors, stay away from anything higher then 4500k with the xenons. To many hondas running around with 8000k and 10000k wearing that look out IMO.

I'M OFFENDED!
Colin, I shit you not, I had some cheapass Kmart whatevers in the Talon and they were the best headlights EVER. Aside from the HID's of course.

Yes, I had to order them online from a UK based company. I also received a set of free high intensity bulbs to replace the map lights. I never used them, but still a cool free gift.

Note: You may want to check the web again for a US based company. I was not able to find them anywhere in the sizing I needed. But, the bulbs have become more popular, so maybe they are out there. Also, its been almost 1.5years since I installed these and they still work perfectly.

I just placed an order for a pair of the BlueVisions. I found them at cyclegear.com (yes, a motorcycle store chain) for $17.99 each with $9 shipping. We'll see how they compare to the SilverStars. If they rock, I'll pick up a pair of fog bulbs too.

I am still using those bulbs and still really enjoy the improvement over stock. You wont get that HID look, but you will get some bright light.

HIR's from john deer are crazy awesome. I am pretty sure they fit the MS3 fog's and high beams whatever those 9xxx numbers are. So I'll have to go order those and post some pics as they work real well and last a long time, as they are made to be used in awesome tractors ;)

heres some info'z

Got the BlueVisions and they're pretty good. In the very least, they're about the same brightness/color as the Silverstar Ultras, but they cost me about $10 less. Only problem is that Philips doesn't make the BlueVisions in the kind I need for my fogs.

Plus, they should last longer at least in my own experience.

OK, so now that I'm happy with the BlueVisions I need to swap out my fog bulbs so the color will match (stock fog bulbs are much more yellow than the BlueVisions). Anyone have any recommendations? I need 55W size H11 bulbs ('06 3 sedan). Doesn't look like they make BlueVisions or SilverStars in that size.

Do you have a P/N for the blue vision bulbs ordered from cyclegear.com? I'm needing some new bulbs as well and want these. Any help finding them for my 3 would be great!

Thanks!

Wow...looks like I must have bought their last pair. Cyclegear.com only lists the BlueVisions as "Only in Stores", and the site says they're out of stock.

I originally found them by just Googling "BlueVision H7" and checking out what came up in the Shopping tab. Looks like there are a bunch of other places that sell them.
