i had silverstars in all my lights, and the only issue was life. the lows were burned out within 4 months. I just pitched all the bulbs and went with somthing else. the fogs did not melt the lenses, but the reflector right above the bulb. hasn't hurt anything so i'll let it ride.

ok so does anyone know about these APC (hyper white) or PIAA (xtreme white) lights? they all have a darker blue tint on the lenses than the sylvania silverstars. will i loose night visability with these darker bulbs? and does anyone know how blue they really are?

Why not just convert to an HID lights no problems with heat, low current draw, and are a brighter whiter light. Oh they are expensive though, well it's only money right.
