I think you'd need to show pics from both driver's seats. But, don't waste your time. Trying to compare 9005's to HID's is futile. Look at the light on the road in front of the S2K... no comparison.

i dunno...when i first got my silverstars...i wasnt that impressed, because they didnt look as "white" as the pics i saw posted, including this one....
i dunno, mine dont look as blue/white, but they're still better than the stock headlights, and also better than the stock 9005's i also modified to fit bulbs ...

wheres the ricer mentality? as long as they look the same in the picture, they will be the same. so why spend $1000 for HID's when you can get something just as good for $50!!!!!!:joshers:

I did the Silverstar 9005 conversion for my brother's 94 LS and I'm not that impressed.... Its not as yellow as stock, but not as white as pics that I've seen in other threads here....
Oh well, that car now belongs to my sister and my brother drives a '01 IS300... Now those are some nice lights....:naughty:
