                Osram Silverstars are bright ass white. They are a clear bulb.

                Sylvania Silverstars are a blue coated, blue light bulb.

                      Yan hold off on buying bulbs for your US ellips until you are ready to do this!

                        So you're getting Smoked Ellips and you want bulbs for those?? I'm a bit confused because Ryan mentioned US ellips (that 'upgrade' ROCKS too, by the way).

                        If you're getting smoked ellips that use H1s then get the Osram Silverstars from:
