The Sylvanias work fine, the Osrams are just better for a little less money!

Advance Auto here in western PA has bright bulbs made by Hella, they're like $50 a pair, but the guys there say that they're even better/brighter than the others. In my parts sales experience (ASE certified), I've also found that Silverstars have serious longevity issues: 6 months you're lucky

nsmitchell · 06-13-2007, 03:16 PM

Are they Hella good?!

uncleyaris · 06-13-2007, 11:45 PM

What would be the best replacement bulbs to get other then the stock or HID's?

How can you beat the price. I say give a try, not much to lose. If BRICK says they are ok I'm sold.

I'm curious about the Hellas as well. I'm interested because I can get the local and because they have a good rep for spotlamps on the offroad circuit. If anyone else has tried them on another car even please speak up!

hella is a very well established german company, I am sure all of their stuff meets high quality german standards, I had there headlight assemblys on my old golf and they were beautiful, a lot of the vw stock lighting I believe is also hella

actually try looking into the phillips + seres i think they have a +150 or something where it burns almost as bright as average H.I.D.... the bulb is much smaller than regular to..

Here's that pesky thread! Taking the bumper cover off is the way to go on this.

Back from the dead!
