saw these at advance auto and figured id try them out...all i can say is holy **** what a difference lol...sorry for the glare in the pics

tail lights only


back up lights


brake lights


again sorry for the glare

 

Damn that's sick. How much?

 

20 bucks for 2 packs of 2 bulbs

 

Nice. I'm gonna check em out

 

do it...you wont be disappointed lol

 

I have black tails and I would love to have brighter reverse lights

 

they really light up my garage lol

 

I thought about picking them up a few times but just never got around to it... going to have to now!

 

do it...they make a world of difference backing up lol

 

Do you know if they're the same wattage as stock?

 

that i dont know lol...i would imagine so

 

Just wondering... just don't want to get into issues I had before where they get too hot and cause damage!

I guess reverse lights wouldn't matter too much anyways as they're not usually on enough to get that hot!

 

just looked at the package and theyre 26.9 watts...not sure what factory bulbs are

 

I had them but my 45 led reverse bulbs are brighter

 

Yeah I think I had those in my truck if I remember right.

 

love my silverstars, have them all around the truck, only problem is they aybe last half as long as a stock bulb, maybe because it burns hotter and brighter?

 

I bought a set a while back, didn't do a damn thing for me. Without tinted housings.

With my tinted housings it was hard to see at night. I went with SMD LED bulbs instead. Those things light up everything behind me.

They were $10 for a pack of 2, I paid $5 shipped for the LED's.

Good to know they are actually brighter, maybe I'll give them a second chance.

 

well for the price vs life vs brightness L.E.D. wins all around. its just the fact that you have to go online on ebay and order osme and wait when these are right down the street good to go.

 

why did you cover your license plate?

 

 

i always do when i take a picture of the back of my truck...can find out where i live and everything like that by running the plate

 

you live in york, pa.

EDIT: 8 minutes later I have your addy. nothings a secret on the internet haha. just sayin. you don't drive around with a towel over your license plate, whats the difference? haha but thats cool...

as for the LEDs vs incandescents for illumination... i'll believe it when I see it. LEDs look bright looking at them, but I want some illumination pics, not just looking straight at the lights.

 

tailing you during a rainstorm in stop n' go traffic would suuuuuuuuck lol
Sweet.

 

Lol

 

Has anyone done a side by side comparison of silverstar bulbs and LED bulbs?
