SYLVANIA 9005 SilverStar Ultra High Performance Halogen Headlight Bulb, (Contains 2 Bulbs)

Bulbs work great, provides a refresh to the headlights of our 13 year old car. Over the years the original bulbs began to dim in brightness and makes driving at night darker than it needs to be. At the price of these bulbs, they really shouldn’t ship them In flimsy shipping bags.

I can't believe how much better these headlights work than my old OEM headlights. The lighting quality is amazing, and the ease of installation was painless, mainly because I had help installing them. I would recommend these to anyone wanting to upgrade their halogen headlights or need to replace burnt-out headlights.

They work great.

Toyota Avalon uses Sylvania bulbs. Had issues with the poor lighting provided by the factory bulbs. Wanted to try these because Sylvania was the stock equipment that worked with my auto-beam headlights and did not interfere with the radio signal. Was unable to locate 9005 led or high intensity aftermarket bulbs that specifically identified compatability with the auto-beam system and that would not interfer with the radio. Sylvania advertises that the Ultras are brighter than their baseline bulbs and have superior down road lighting. I can verify that they are definitely brighter and whiter and definitely superior to the stock bulbs. They are not (repeat not) as white or as bright as the leds I see in the newer cars but are a great upgrade from what I had in the stock bulbs. Much better lighting at night and seem to have a much greater downroad effect for me. I have seen complaints about the longevity. I haven't had the bulbs installed for more than a few weeks. If they burn out prematurely, I'll definitely revisit this review. OK for now. Installation was easy once I located the bulb locations (one side has battery and grill semi-obstructions) and figured out how to remove from car's socket. There is a quarter turn to remove bulb or relock it into position in the light fixture. Only slightly harder to remove the bulb from its plastic socket ... wanted to take it easy and not break a prong off the side of the adaptor. This is truly a plug and play. For my car the 9005 bulbs were for driving lights and for high beams. Therefore it takes 4 bulbs all 9005s. As the heading says: So far so good. Great upgrade for me. Work fine even though not led bright.

great item and fast delivery

These bulbs are a direct replacement for the high beams on my 2008 GMC Sierra (Denali), and they work wonderfully. By way of reference, I have had this truck for over a year, now, and have always been a bit disappointed by the performance of the stock headlights. I've been hunting for replacement (9005) bulbs for the high beams (and low beams, but that's another review) for months. I have had cars recently with Xenon headlights and wished for something comparable to that degree of brightness and down-the-road visibility. The stock headlight bulbs, though serviceable, are not on the level of what I wanted. Some other aftermarket bulbs I tried were also a disappointment, more so than even the OEM bulbs. So I decided to give these a shot. I'm glad I have these on, now. The packaging states that it can improve up to 50% over existing bulbs. I can attest to at least about a 30% improvement, if not more, in my non-scientific opinion. The best measure I have of this is the fact that the garage to my house is on an alleyway behind my and my neighbors' houses. With the stock bulbs, I could just barely see my garage door, about 5 garages down, as I turned into the alley at night. The light just didn't travel far enough. Now I can not only see my garage door, but also the three past it down the same alley. In addition, the light is whiter than the yellow light put off by the OEM halogens (though still slightly yellow in tint), so not only is the bulb brighter, but it produces a more natural light. It is not, mind you, Xenon headlight intensity or whiteness, but it's approaching that without having to spend hundreds of dollars to change out the whole headlight to an HID model, if they even exist for your application. The only slight downside is that the mounting surface on the back of the bulb that screws into the socket is slightly different from the stock bulbs and the one set of poor aftermarket replacements I tried. This made it a little more challenging to seat the new bulbs into the sockets properly, though only slightly. You may have to work with it a bit. I'm glad I found these and can't recommend them enough. Tip: When installing any headlight bulb, wear some sort of clean gloves. These lights get quite hot when on, and any skin oils that get on the bulb (e.g., fingerprints), will cause the housing to heat up and cool off unevenly and dramatically shorten the bulb life.

Decent price, but they didn't fit my car. They issued a label for usps. I asked for a QR code or prepaid, they said no problem. They will provide a free shipping label. Amazon sent me my refund and had the shipping subtracted from my refund total. So, returning it wasn't free. It went from paying up front at usps to paying out of my refund. Beware, it's not packaged with care. The expensive glass bulbs are sent in a shipping bag with no padding. The package was all scrunched in, too.

I installed these headlights to a 2013 Toyota Rav4. HUGE improvement!! These new headlights are much whiter and much brighter than the originals, which is exactly what I was looking for. The bulbs fit perfectly for both the low beam and high beam with no hassle.

Amazing product!

Bought these to replace the standard headlights, the only problem being they don't appear to be available in Australia so I had to order them from the US Please with the end result, they are a significant improvement over standard Kia Picante headlights, we're happy

Much better than regular Halogen bulbs , white light is brighter. Not blinding to on coming traffic ; I do mostly city / suburbs driving.

Light is too low and does not add any extra luminance from the OEM .

Not impressed with the brightness of these , they don’t shine that far , expected them to me much better , also the beam pattern of the one sucks ! 1/2 of the brightness is from a top set of LED’s And now they’ve jacked the price up to nearly $83 from the 50 some I paid which was to much!
