Sylvania SilverStar High Performance Halogen Headlight is fashioned for brighter and whiter light. It has dual filament for both high beam and low beam. This operates with internal gas pressure which significantly reduces the rate of tungsten evaporation. Its analogous non-halogen incandescent lamp operates the same filament temperature with greater luminance and efficiency. This combined effect of higher pressure and the halogen cycle give halogen lamp much longer life.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.
Bulb Burn-Out Issue Solved (For Me)!
For several years I was having a problem with the Sylvania Silverstar bulbs burning out every 6 to 12 months. I loved the light so much that I tolerated it and replaced them with the same bulb.
I was using the practice of letting the Camry turn the lights on automatically with a turn of the ignition key. The process was (1) lights turn on (2) engine starts. I could see the lights flutter a little during the starting process.
I then experimented by manually turning on the lights AFTER the car was started. It has now been 2 years with NO BULB BURNOUTS. I believe turning the ignition with the lights already in auto on creates extra wear and tear resulting in more frequent burn-outs.

Expensive hype
I fell for the hype and it was a mistake. Other reviewers will no doubt agree that these are short-lived bulbs and there is a reason for this. These bulbs are colored blue to *simulate* the HID look. Any color on the glass actually reduces output, so Sylvania uses an over-rated filament to get brighter light to compensate for the light absorbed by the coloring. Because federal laws are very specific about the output of headlights, Sylvania cannot use a filament that draws more current so the filament is burning overly hot and therefore has a shorter life. They same seems true for their uncolored X-Tra Vision bulbs. (Which may be the Silverstars without the color.) I tried those and they both burned out in less than a year, two weeks apart.
I too have switched to GE bulbs and hope their bulbs are more durable.
Not HIDs, but they're up there....
So I threw some of these in my 300zx, and man, they're crispy. They aren't 'brighter' per say, but they are MUCH cleaner as for as illumination. This does make it easier to see further out, but I don't think the lumens are different (OEM). As far as them burning out quickly, idk, but I have a really good idea that most of these people reviewing any of these halogens probably don't realize you can't touch the bulb.... it ruins them because of the oils. There really isn't much of a 'blue tint' that some reviewers are talking about- there is somewhat of newton circles on the film, but you can only see it under artificial sunlight (CFLs and florescents), but i doubt this has much to do with the crisp output- it just seems to be a more pure light imo. If you're wanting a blue hId like light, then you probably don't want these at all, but these are a daylight 4k color.
