    Don't waste your money on any of those.

    HIDs are the way to go or if you have lotsa $$$$$ burning a hole in your pocket, get retrofitted with projectors.

    Go to HIDplanet and theretrofitsource. Both EXCELLENT resources for all things headlights!!!

    I will post a step-by-step retrofit install in a thread in about two weeks. So anybody can (hopefully) do it themselves for under $300 start-to-finish. Beats the hell out of $1100 for someone else to do it.

    If you don't want to go HID, at least stay away from SilverStar Ultras...waste of money. I took them out and replaced with the XtraVisions; they're a better bulb for less money.
