PIAA 1100X Platinum Driving lights... Damn close to being the same size as the stock housing. You don't get much brighter outside HID
^Not on my Camaro, since it's not night driven, but they are amazing

You can get some silverstars for the fogs. They are a bit harder to put in because they are straight and not L-shaped like the stockers, but they do work! I forgot the part number now, but you can get them at any of the big auto part stores.
Here's a before:
and a after:
My headlights are silverstars too
20 bucks a pop. Is it worth it.... well....it's not like I see any better, its just for looks.

I have the same set up right now. Looks good and matches pretty good. Here is another link for another option

thanx for all the imput, i thinking of going with the siverstars, but i still have a few questions. I already have PIAA's for the low beam and love them but im not sure if i want to tear off another grip for some fogs. but i have a few questions about the PIAA's?
were the PIAA's easy to put in?
is it the bulb or the whole fixture?
can you give me more details about the PIAA's

The PIAA's are on my DD Saturn, but yes, they were easy to put it. They come with a full harness and relay already wired, I would imagine it would be fairly easy to mount them since they are relatively close to being the same size. IIRC, there are some people that have mounted them on Camaros. Found a post on someone with them installed on. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ight=PIAA+1100 They are a bit pricey, but having PIAA low beams already, I doubt you'll be satisfied with the silverstar fogs. If you search around google, apparently PIAA makes 880 replacement bulbs in their Xtreme White series (for $50 if you find the right place) which should fit in place of the 894s in there now. Personally, the cash spent on PIAA is far more worth it than Silverstars. My 9005/9006 combo are about 4 years old and still bright as ever.

Yeah one thing I want to note about the Silverstars, they don't last all that long. My first set only lasted like 2 or 3 years. Mind you, I only drive my car on weekends.
To complete the Silverstar look though, I also have them in my blinkers, they look really cool, especially since I have the clear housings with black backing, and the silverstars are actually silver in color when off. But that's off topic...
