Headlight Question/Upgrade

I am thinking of installing a set of Sylvania Silverstar headlights and foglights. Has anyone done this, and if so do the new bulbs make a difference? Also does anyway have the bulb numbers for both the headlights and foglights?

Headlights are H13ST and the fog's are 9145ST or you can use 9005ST which is actually a high beam bulb for even more output.

I just put the silverstars in last weeked. H13st in the headlights and the 9145st in the fogs. Its definently an improvement over stock. Much whiter lighting

Has anyone tried the silverstar ultras? I just saw them in the store. Was wondering if they were worth the extra 10 or so bucks.

Be careful, some have had problems using the higher power bulbs in the fogs. Not saying you will, but have heard of them melting the lens, melting the wiring harness, and exploding. YMMV.
As far as the H13ST and 9145ST, they both are improvements over stock. Have had the fogs in for quite a while, and the headlights for a few months.
