If you 'carefully' read thru the entire thread, you will see that, me personally, I have factory HID w/ the factory yellow fogs (standard in this setup). I am switching to "CLEAR" fogs! And the debate/question is which 'aftermarket is the BEst? Foe me I should say "Best Bang For The Buck?" I'm not gonna fork over an additional $100-150 bucks for bulbs that only a 'Hawk' (Yes The Bird!) could only tell the difference between!!!

 

And I truly appreciate it SandRock! No question about that! But listen, do you have those pictures of your side-byside comparo? And that site you listed has the exact same bulbs I installed in my high-beams, and they were yellow when compared to my HID's! :eek: :eek: :eek: Even though they have that slight blue tint....

Well now I'm trying to see what JAC JZS has for me. Apparently, he swears by the PIAA Super Plasmas as being the absolute closest to HID. And judging by this photo he sent, I'm impressed! But then again, this is for my fogs, and I have alot more other mods (bodykit & audio/video) that I have to be concerend with. This thread is however very informative in my book, as it allows different users with different bulb applications to express their opinions, and 'actual experience'!

 

Superplasmas in my Supra

 

Hmmm! Looks good! What is the cost for a set of 9006???

 

Oh, and thanks much thanks to Jac JZS for selling & sending me the drivers side fog lamp! Smooth, & effortless transaction! There's still some good honest people out there!

 

TX, you can probably get them on Ebay for $65-$80. They retail for $80-$125.

 

I'm gonna go ahead and stick with my SilerStars! I'm getting ready to install them now!

 

Thanks TX!

 

BTW, I bought those a while ago before Hella 7000k(blue) HID's were on Ebay for $350:eek: :eek: :eek:. I think you can guess which lights I will be buying from now on

 

So I now have my clears in along with the SilverStars, and I'm totally satisfied! The light is extremely 'white' no blueish or purpleish, just an intense white! And I don't mean the yellowish halogen either! I immediately noticed how well the road was lit up while I drove tonight for @ 15 miles or so. It would appear to me that my eyes (no glasses, perfect vision) could see major differences especially on the sides! So bottom line: these bulbs 'compliment' the Xenons/HID's very well. And in the end, that's all I wanted! I will post a pick as soon as I get my camera back form a relative I lent it to.

 

TXSTYLE,

I'm glad you are happy with the Sylvanias. Good Choice.

Those are my cars in the pic you attached. The SC on the left has factory HID and Nokya 4150s in the fogs. The GS on the right has PIAA Super Plasma in the headlights and the fogs. Maybe it is my imagination but I feel I get more light out of the PIAAs. Maybe its because with both the headlights and foglights running aftermarket bulbs, I'm getting 220 total watts (55w each bulb). I do like the color of the Super Plasmas better than any other bulb I've tried.

Is it just me or is the wedge bulb in the inner housing where the high beam a pain in the butt to put in? i mean i could barely get my hands behind the housing where the bulb goes? is there an easier way?

No sir, it is a pain!

 

There is new bulb from PIAA (well in Japan at least)
PIAA Super Extreme White. Much better than extreme or Super plasma IMO.
However, nothing matches with HID.
Once the bulbs goes out, I will be getting aftermarket HID.
