Default Brightest 3157s

I wanna get the brightest 3157s I can. Reasonably priced of course. Anyone know what is the best kind?

yeah the silverstars are pretty bright. they are not as yellow as the stockers, more of a clear/blueish light. from the drivers seat they don't seem like they are like super bright, but i guess they are as i get flashed by oncoming traffic everytime i drive at night.

3157 is the turn signal bulb not the 9006 driving light

Sylvania silverstars 3157s are bright. LED's you have to put a resistor inline otherwise it will blink really fast and its a PITA to get it all working right

what about just changing the flasher from a thermal to a electronic or are the silverado's already electronic flashers? i did this in my firebird and solved the problem
