the lights are a weird color, i wouldnt say white or blue, theyre kind blue, white, and yellow all mixed into on. i have those on my car. they are some of the best lights. find the proper application for your civic. mine were 50$ a pair but very worth it

let me tell you...the silver stars are shitty in the rain.
the light pretty much bounces off the ground when it is wet and you cant see shit. i have them both int he camry and accord but can see fine when dry.

sucks when you have astigmatism as well.

I heard PIAA lights are better than Silverstars? Can someone confirm this?

Honestly I would just stick with your regular bulbs. More hassle than good, if anything get yourself an HID kit.

If your headlights have projectors in them, like the 94+ tegs, it will turn out good.

No. Because it's going to be diffrent for everyone.

If they were just simply "better", Silverstars would probably not even exsist.
