I want some brighter lights but not ready to fork out the 200+ for HID's at the time.

Any pic's comments or concerns? I would love to find out before i spend 30 bucks..and not like them.

Thanks!
In my opinion....having had both on my truck........NOTHING compairs to HID's. Mine were $130 shipped and installed in under 30minutes. 20minutes of that was figuring out how to mount the ballasts. I have no shots of the luminics vs. silverstar....or stock vs. silverstar.

Here's Luminics Titaniums vs. 4300k Hid's:

If you are going for Ultras.....you are either paying $40-55 regular price at the autoparts store.....or considerably less from ebay.

I LOVE my silverstars, the only problem I have is that within two weeks of each other both of my fog lights burnt out, like 3 months after I had them. Whats the deal with that? The headlights have been great!

water, dirt, rocks getting throwd at the foglights from your front tires. Some folks have made gaurds that help cure that problem.
