Much better. The "Cool Blue" bulbs just project blue-coloured light. Whereas the Silverstars are actually noticably brighter (to me at least) and produce a lot "cleaner" light (that is, the light is more consistant on the road, fewer dark patches, etc.)

I've been using SilverStars for a while, and the difference between them and the regular bulbs I used before is incredible. Everything is more visible, and the light field they put out is a lot larger.
Besides, the whole blue-light fad is on its way out.

The silverstars and the upgrade of the driving lamps made all the diffrence...
Vote for silverstars here... And the rice around here has the Blue bulbs... Those are annoying...

well, i spent 40 bucks, and got the silverstars for my low beams, they look pretty darn good, but they arent quite as pure a white as i expected, still pretty nice though.
