I have had silverstars on my truck for almost a year now, no problems yet. They look about as bright as stock for low beams, but whiter, but when I put the high beams on they really shine bright

Good choice and from I read I guess you can get an H.I.D kit for around $150 off Ebay.
Actually a lot cheaper than that. I have bought 5 sets recently off ebay for 75 shipped per set to my door. I kept getting offers from my buds to buy then off me for 100, so I would sell than get another set and same thing. My last set I put them on my bike before anyone got a chance to offer me anything.
