bulbs like those have short lifespan, yes they are brighter but if you drive a lot at night, will be replacing yearly, they get like 200-300 hours of life as info

I have had them in for at least 5 years and drive some night and not burned out yet. I have had others that do burn out fast but these are SYLVANIA not Korean brand x. They are worth installing big improvement. You install just like the stock bulb which is not simple on a mm you need to pull the headlight forward or out is best to get to the bulb. Best to loosen the corner / park light to pull out headlight assembly.

Buy a couple of flashlites and duct tape them to the fender. They will be brighter and you can pull the headlites for more air to the intake.
I prefer the Silverstar Ultras, as opposed to Silverstar XZEs

I'd recommend a relayed headlight harness from BH1976 (assuming he's still making them) which would also prolong the life of the LCM. Might not feel the need for different bulbs once they're getting full voltage. Easy for me to spend your money though...

I've been doing the Relay Harness mod since forever (GM b-bodies before Panthers) with good results. BH1976's work is very good too.

Personally, I went through so many Sylvania Ultra bulbs that I will NEVER buy another Sylvania product.
Absolute junk.....they would burn out every 6 months!
There was even a lawsuit against them....which I should have participated in.

I've had very good luck with PIAA products.
They are bright white, and they last for years....not months
