Report on Silverstar Parking Light Bulbs
I put in Sylvania Silverstars in my headlights and foglights. They look great. Nice and white, nice and bright. But, I also sprang for Silverstar parking light bulbs 3157A/ST. $10 a pair from AutoBarn.
I have a daytime running light module that turns on the parking lights, and I thought the Silverstars might make them a little brighter. Unfortunately, the Silverstars have a special coating to make them shine amber, so all you get is a light about as bright as stock but much more amber. Not what I wanted. So, I put the stock bulbs back in.
Headlight and foglight bulbs, well worth it. Parking light bulbs, not worth it.

Yes, they are available as H13ST and the fog lights are available as 9145ST. I got mine at the local AutoZone. I think they should be available at most of the big chain auto parts stores. They should also be viewable on the Sylvania website for a quick look. I don't know if you'll want to buy them off the web, you'll have to pay shipping.

Autozone, $19.99 each.
anybody got a line on a brighter backup bulb?
Tried the LED's, put the factory ones back in. these things are the same thing I use in my outdoor lighting only a few watts brighter.
