Default h3 bulb that matches silverstar 9005?

i dont believe sylvania makes a silverstar H3 bulb, so i was wondering if anybody knew of a bulb i could use that would match my silverstar 9005's (i did the 9005 to 9006 conversion fo rmy low beams)? from what ive heard, the piaa extreme white plus bulbs are slightly off, but close. anybody know of anything closer to the same color as the silverstar?

im actually using these bright blue piaa xtreme white bulbs. i dunno why they label them as white, theyre a nice bright blue (look at my sig) i think they look pretty good with the silverstar headlights, but my fog lights just dont match my headlights anymore so i want something that will at least come really close to matching those silverstars.

For some reason, the foglight lenses fade easily over time, which affects the way the light looks. I recently bought a new foglight assembly for the driver side and after installing it on my 97, it looked much clearer compared to the old one. At nite, the driver side seemed slightly brighter.

Post Philips Bluevision H3

.star.
If you are still looking for a set of H3 bulbs to match your 'Silverstars' You might want to consider Philips "Bluevision'.
They are a perfect match to the Silverstars. I currently have set of Silverstars with Philips 'Bluevision' for my auxiliary bulbs
and they match quite well. I have a pair of H3, if your interested.
