    Sealed Beamers (pun intended)!! Anyone install these, H6024ST Sylvania Silver Stars?

    Apparently they are a huge improvement over the terrible stock ones, but I would like to see some before and after pics and hear some opinions. Thanks.

    Don't waste your money.

    Their life span is about 1/4 a regular sealed beam - sad if you ask me. I have tried them in various vehicles in different shapes and sizes - they do put out more light, and have a slightly bluish white tint - but they cost too much to last so short.

    Upgrade to some form of replaceable bulb - even a cheap conversion is better than these.

      get some h4 Hella lows and H1 highs, as read about on strictlyeta.net. The next best upgrade to elipsesesesesse. It's what I did, and works great.

                Are you taling new euros because I had both and the output was the same back when I had halogens.

                  H4/H1 conversion is wayyy underrated.

                  Especially when you turn jackass and throw HIDs in them. Good Lord.

                  Just make sure you get Hella, and not Bosch. Bosch ones have horrible lighting.

                    I think the output is better with my H4/H1s than with the euro ellips that I had.

                      ??? I heard Bosch smilies are much better than Hellas - or are you referring to sealed beams from the respective companies??
