I have them in my 07 (low beams, high beams, and fogs) and I like them a lot. I found them at my local Wal Mart and Advance Auto Parts. They were about 40 bucks per pair.
I've heard there are reliability issues with the Silverstars...anyone had theirs for more than a year? I'd like to change mine out, but I'm not up for spending 40 bucks x 3 each year...
They burn brighter so life span of the bulb goes down. That being said, disable your DRL and they will last a long time. My current set has lasted over 10 months.
Uhh.. I'm pretty sure Auto Zone doesn't sell them. Try Advance Auto Parts or Wal Mart because I found them at both of those stores.
Part #'s for the Silverstar bulbs in my 07 are:
Low Beams = H7 ST/2 (2 pack of bulbs)
High Beams = 9005 ST/2 (2 pack of bulbs)
Fogs = H3 ST (single bulb)
...and finally, I had Silverstars in my old Eclipse too, and I do remember replacing both low beam bulbs once over a 4-5 year period. That's not too bad I guess. I didn't expect them to last forever. But I definitely didn't need to replace them every year if that's your concern.
i had some silverstars in my old accord...i also had friends who had them in a ford truck, an acura legend, another accord, and a crx, we all ended up replacing these bulbs in well under a year......
i used to have silverstars in all my lights. but i upgraded to 6000k HID low beams and now with the silverstars still in my fogs, the fogs are mad yellow in comparison to the new HID's. but it looks cool, almost like a Lexus IS300 with the HID / yellow fog stock set up. looks good to me until i go with HID fogs if i ever do.
I know it hasn't been very long yet, but I still use my daytime running lights and my current Silverstars have lasted a little over 6 months
