Anyone know where I can get them for cheap? Trying to get a set of 9005s and 9006 silverstars for the Accord. Cheapest I found was around $40 for a pair.

:dunno: It's only $40...I'd prefer paying $40 from pepboys or somewhere and knowing that they are the real thing than saving $10 and getting a pair on eBay. Sometimes pepboys has some rebates though so you can get them for like $20 per pair.

got a set of 9005 and 9006 for my gf's new 04 civic from PepBoys. All 4 Silverstars for ~$45. Pep Boys was finally good for something. Did you know that they make Silverstars for your corner bulbs too?

Now are they direct replacement for the factory bulbs? My understanding of physics tells me I am gonna have issues because the bulbs are brighter and hence would produce more heat and kill my light housing.
