This is from the Sylvania web site:

Headlights
H13 (9008)
H13ST Silverstar High Performance Lighting: The Whiter and Brighter Halogen
H13XV XtraVision Halogen - The Brighter Light

Front Parking/Signal
3157NALL
3157AST Silverstar Signal Lighting: Complete the Look: Crisp, Clean, Style
These look silver and blend in with the reflector when they are off but burn amber when they are illuminated.
This eliminates the "fried egg" look of an amber coloredbulb.

Fog/Driving light
9006LL
9006SU Silverstar ULTRA for Ultra Night Vision - The Whitest and Brightest Halogen
9006ST Silverstar High Performance Lighting: The Whiter and Brighter Halogen
9006XV XtraVision Halogen - The Brighter Light
9006CB Cool Blue Halogen - The Whiter Light

If you so a search on the part numbers that end in ST or SU, you will geta lot of hits for prices for the Silverstars.

Millionbuy.com sells them Crutchfield used to but no longer does.

I installed 8000K HID's on my truck, I know a guy on E-bay who sells them for $68 per kit, I've gotten 8 kits from him for family and friends, the only thing I didn't like about these, since the Hi and Low beam are in the same housing, only the low beam, is HID, the Hi Beam is a regular bulb. On my Charger I had all 3 sets HID, which really didnt make a difference, the low beam and high beam were exactly the same brightness. But Yeah, for $140 get HID's, its soooo worth it. Search for Hidgate on E-bay.

im gonna search for that seller. did you have a problem with them flickering at all? i still dont know what i need to do to stop the flickering on our trucks when i get hid's. i was gonna get them from airram, but $170 a kit is a little pricey. but $68....why not give it a try. i just want to hook them up and not have to worry about flickering or any other problems. i dont need a hi/lo since i have different bulbs that are individual.

Basically of thoes I've run the only ones I'd reccomend are the Eurolite Crystals/Fusions or the Farnheits and I like the Faernheits the best. None of them offer a ton better vision than stock they just look a lot better and don't seem to be a lot worse than stock like most aftermarket bulbs are. The Farnheits sometimes I like better than stock sometimes not. HID's are the way to go if you actually want more vision than stock offers. I've read artices saying the PIAA's are worse than stock along with many other bulbs. Thats basically sums up what I wrote.
I run farenheits and they are great bulbs. havent found anything i like better than that yet before i think about HID. where did you get them? I go millionbuy.com and there like 10$ for each pair. This is the second set within a year though sadly. One bright went bad then then other headlight then one of the fogs too. I dont know what that was all about but i definately like the bulb and its 10$ so what ever.
