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

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.

These bulbs are actually better than the OEM bulbs that were installed at the factory for my 2003 Lincoln Navigator - purchased new. My OEM original bulbs I replaced yesterday were 60 Watt bulbs. These are 65 Watts and have a whiter ray of light - not the typical “yellow” hue. These bulbs really light up the road far ahead at night. My Nav’s low beam bulbs are the Sylvania D1R HID light bulbs at 35 Watts - Osram made in Germany. On low beam the D1R (aka Xenon tech) HID bulbs are very effective for about 100 - 120 feet of bright light. When selecting the “high beam” light mode both my HID and Halogen bulbs light up the road for an unbelievable 600’ (200 yards) or more!! After almost 20 years of OEM use (slowly dimming) the new Sylvania bulbs light up the night as I remembered when I first purchased my Nav. Although the Sylvania HID bulbs are at factory 35 Watts spec., the Sylvania Halogen high beam bulbs are 5 Watts more powerful - not enough to cause any wiring issues. In my humble opinion, Sylvania is the best brand. I was surprised to see ALL the Sylvania bulbs I purchased are NOT Made in China!!

Amazing. I decided to replace the headlights on my Chevy Cavalier. I bought the 9006 Sylvania Regular Headlights, and were so impressed by them that I decided to buy these for my brights, which also happen to be my day-timerunning lights. I took my old brights out of my car to see that they were spotted with old brown spots on them and probably explained the dull yellow color. Needless to say I was overdue for a replacement. The Difference was insane. As if my regular headlights weren't enough, these light up just about everything for a good 200-300 feet ahead, and have a huge wide angle that covers I'd about a 165 Degree angle cone from the car. Meaning you can almost see things directly on the side of the road next to the headlamps. Ever since I installed these, friends and strangers alike have commented on how incredibly bright these lights and how blinding they were up close. Their color is very nice, I don't like the stupid blue / purple HID's and I thought these were a cheap alternative. These are a very crisp white / blue bright light and look very nice. I actually get flashed by other drivers to turn off my brights now as I drive by (sometimes we forget, right?). Pros: Price, Quality, Huge viewing angle and range, very bright Con: May not last too long but we'll see in a year.

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.

All OK.

Got these installed in my wife's car....I'm a hero! Really bright ....

My bulbs failed before the 2 year warran-ty. But the manufacturer would not stand by the warranty because you are not an authorized seller. I need you to replace my bulbs. See their response below. "Purchases made on Amazon.com must state: 'ships from and sold by Pattern' in order to be considered an authorized re-tailer. Unfortunately, Swift Buy Mart and Green Goods are not an authorized Syl-vania resellers on Amazon. We suggest reaching out to the Amazon sellers for warranty assistance."

If what you're looking for a is a slightly 'less yellow' light than the factory lights and don't want to worry about the compatibility that LEDs might cause, then you will like these. But if you think these will be anywhere NEAR LED white, don't bother. I guess I'll be getting the decoder for LEDs.
