I put the fog lights in and side by side to a stock one I couldn't tell a 40 dollar difference...not even a $5 difference. They also only lasted 3 months or so. I never touched them and my fog light housings are not fogged up either. It's not worth it. The headlight bulbs on the other hand are very nice

i have gone through about 4 pairs of silverstars in 4 months for my fog lights....i have blackouts over the fogs and corners, so i thought a brighter bulb would do the trick, turns out the tip of the silverstars were just touching my fog lenses and now im out two fog lenses because they were all melted and distorted

I agree with Nathan!
