mine?? not silverstars, not "HID look", and no tint, they are philips 85123 D2R(Same bulb a lexus uses I think) re-based to 9006, with philips ballasts w/ integrated ignitor(lvq-212). They are real HID.
and to monstar's first post, 9005 in low beam on an accord ins't that bad because of how they shield it, some cars rely on the shield of the bulb itself to reduce glare, not accords. As far as 9006 in high beam, it wouldn't work well because a 9006 is a capped bulb. It would be significantly more dim than a 9005.
