SYLVANIA - H7 SilverStar Ultra - High Performance Halogen Headlight Bulb, High Beam, Low Beam and Fog Replacement Bulb, Brightest Downroad with Whiter Light, Tri-Band Technology (Contains 2 Bulbs)

I am writing this review after 1 year of usage on my 2021 Hyundai Tucson. These bulbs are excellent and still burn bright as day 1 after numerous night drives. The installation was easy, just had to be careful not to touch them with bare hands.I see many reviews complaining about the bulbs going out in a few months. I think it is because of wrong handling of the bulbs which shortened their life.

Worth every penny. This product packs a punch. Very powerful, bright LED lights and what amazed me most was just how easy it was to install these. Took me roughly 10-minutes to install each since I did it at nightime. Sylvania is the best out there in today's market.

purchased these bulbs for the high and low beams in my '11 Jetta because I live in a rural area and do a lot of night driving. The difference from stock is spectacular. Noticeably brighter on the road, greater throw, and slightly whiter to look at (not nearly HID white, but better than stock). Do these compare to factory HIDs in projector housings? Well, not exactly. But they are superior to any stock halogen and about are as bright and legal as one can get.Just a few caveats for these bulbs, 1) as with all halogens, wear clean nitrile/latex gloves when installing as any oil off your skin or dirt will greatly reduce their life; don't eat french fries, install the bulbs, then rate them 1 star because they burnt out the next day; and 2) Their burn time as per past experience and Sylvania literature is a fraction of normal halogens, expect to replace these at least once a year. To me, the trade-offs are worth it -- I will give up longevity for greater visibility and safety.If you can't sacrifice longevity and don't think the extra $20 a year is worth seeing better, then look elsewhere. But just note that any halogen bulb that can deliver greater actual performance will have significantly less burn time because the filaments can only handle so much extra power before giving up.UPDATE 1, October 2012: 13 months and 16,000 miles later and the bulbs are still going strong. I had installed Silverstar Ultras in my highs, lows, and fogs in a 2011 VW Jetta, and all 6 remain intact (living in a rural area I usually run with the fog/driving lights on). So take this testament as you will against those that say their bulbs burned out quickly.Also, some manufacturers run higher voltages to the headlights causing these types of high output halogens to burn out fast. From my experience at least, VW doesn't appear to be among them.UPDATE 2, August 2013: My first bulb, a low beam, finally burned out; 23 months/27,000 miles after being installed.

Purchase November 2010, so far so good 7 months later.Light is whiter and brighter then the stock bulbs in my MINI. I had to do a slight adjustment in the leveling of the light, once adjusted the range is definitely better.Having said that, the GE Nighthawk I bought for my wife's car is about just as good, at a fraction of the price. However, I am happy with the Sylvania.Update: 8 months later, one of the headlights burned out. That is with relatively infrequent driving at night, and no DRL on my car. Install was done with new surgical gloves to prevent body oil from contaminating the bulb, so I know it was done properly. I suppose the concerns about premature failure from other reviewers are right. From the packaging, the Ultra is supposed to have 1/4 the life of a standard halogen bulb, I am not sure how many hours it translates to in bulb life. Since they guarantee 12 months of "complete satisfaction" from date of purchase, I will wait for the other bulb to burn out and then call them for a pair of replacement. If you go with these bulbs, you should keep the original packaging and receipt, as you may need it to get the replacement. You may also need an extra set of bulbs to use while these are being replaced as well.Now I have GE Nighthawk on one side, and the Ultra on the other. I will see if Ultra actually makes any difference.Update: 10 months later, the remaining bulb went out. For two months, I had the SilverStar Ultra on one side, the NightHawk on the other and I was able to do some comparisons. The Silverstar has slightly higher color temperature (whiter) than the nighthawk, but the light output is about the same.Since both bulbs are out in 10 months, and they offer a customer satisfaction for one year, I contacted their support line via email. Their responss is prompt and professional, I explained the situation to them, and they offered to replace the bulbs if it was purchased at an authorized retailer. I believe the idea is to exclude purchases from private parties in auction site as the transaction is hard to prove, not to mention fakes. I submitted my receipt from Amazon, which is an authroized retailer, they immediately shipped the new bulbs out via Fedex 2-day service. They also collected info about year and model of my car, apparently, they are doing research on how the car can affect bulb life.So overall, although I wish the bulb life could have been better, they have great output and high color temperature. Visibility at night is certainly better than the stock bulbs. Most importantly, Sylvania is a company that stands behind their products with excellent customer services.

I Bought These Sylvania Silverstar Ultra H7 high beam bulbs, hav'nt put them in yet!!, I Had Them On Another car and liked them, a bit brighter than stock bulbs!!!!!

Purchased for a reasonable price, shipping was quick. Modern headlight replacement is now a chore to replace. The brightness is superior to normal O.E.M. bulbs although they do not last as long . I'm happy with my puechase.

Bulb color brightness was just fine , I installed in pair one bulb died in 3 months of use try to contact listed number on bulb package no response.

VERY NICE HEADLIGHT BULB SET=VERY BLIGHT
