We used to have the 9006 silverstars on our old honda accord, they went after a year of good use. But only A year.

I got the razo royal white bulbs first and they sucked! the color was waay too blue and one of them went out after a month, and the other one had all the blue peel off the bulb, so i got the silverstars and they have been working much brighter and longer, about 8 months so far and still going strong. I wanna try the 9005 mod next.

For a bunch of guys that are wondering so much, you sure seem to have a problem using the search button.
What's stopping you from searching on "cut" "tab" and "9005" and reading the 6 other threads on the subject?

and to answer someone else's question about PIAA vs. Silverstars my answer would be a resounding YES, the PIAA's are better. I have the PIAA extreme whites and couldn't be happier, extremely bright, extremely white, and not offensive to other motorists. For $65 for the pair I think they were a steal...I plan to switch to a real HID set-up sometime next year and will most likely sell the PIAA's after that.

I have the Silverstar fogs and my driver side just went out on me. (5 months)
I think it might have somehting to do with the IC pipe resting on the assemply though.
Will investigate tomorrow.
