I am at looking at upgrading the stock headlight and foglight bulbs.
So far I have picked Nokya H13 Stage II part number nok-7228 for headlights. I have them picked out at 59.99. Second I have picked the Nokya H10 Arctic white part number nok-7226, but they also have the nok-7211 9005 bulb. Does anyone have any experience with any of these bulbs. Please comment on brightness reiliablity, etc. Thanks for any input as I am not sure yet.

I hope you got two sets of each. The ones I had were a short life for sure.

I'll second that.....I had them in my fogs (both factory and roush fogs, took two orders before I get two that worked , and one burned out after 4 months) and headlights ( lost a high beam on one fo them already) I have already replaced all my fogs with silverstars and am much happier ( and can see twice as far)

Those Nokia's suk. The light output is very diminished. You'll have brighter lites w/ stock and w/ Nokia's you'll get less light, w/ blueish look.


Has anyone found Silverstars in H13 that will fit our headlights??????
If so - WHERE? :scratch:

That's why I asked what bulb to get because Sylvania said they wouldn’t produce the H13 bulb. INTRUDER and hireman, what bulb model are ya'll using? I wouldn't mind seeing some nighttime pictures as well.

Thanks!

I just got the Sylvania 9145ST Silverstar for my fogs and Sylvania H13XV XtraVision Halogen Upgrade: Up to 20% Brighter, for my headlamps. It's not quite dark yet but I will take some pics tonight and post and I'll let you know if I like them.
I got them at Advance auto parts. They were $15.94 each for the H13XV and $19.98 each for the silverstars.

OK, here are some pics. Haven't driven with them yet but they look pretty good. It looks like a brighter, whiter light as advertised. It also seems to light up a larger area. First in car pic is headlights and fog lights on. Second in car pic is just headlights.

hmm ... i have the nokya's in my main lights and i found the don't snap in to the base, so, i worry about the connection. i lost the hi-beams but then i took them out and put them back in and they were fine again (for how long i dont know). isnt there also something about not getting the hi-voltage ones b/c they are too hot? anyway, i have silverstars in the fogs and they are working just fine.
