get oem or silverstars. DONT get hyperwhites. the light output is not up to par, even in dry conditions.

no, the bulbs aren't yellow, but when you compare them with a silverstar it really makes them seem yellow. i wish i had a picture to show you.. its almost like difference between your stock headlights and stock turn signals..thats how HUGE the difference is.. they really are amazing bulbs.. its deffinitly worth the 40 bucks(i picked mine up for 30 after a 10 dollar rebate )

i mean take a look at my picture i attached earlier in this thread. and then take a picture of your stock bulbs same angle etc and compare the two.. you'll like what you see

stock bulbs are a creamish white color, not yellow...but compared with the whiteness of the silverstars they look yellow :thumbup:
