Silverstar Headlights Comparison (Pics)

SILVERSTAR H13ST VRS. STOCK

Bought my 2004 SCREW fX4 a week ago and here's my first mod. Thanks to you guys I bought the h13st silverstar headlights. Here is a comparison from what was in it before. I only replaced one side and took pictures. I wanted to see if there was really any difference. The pictures do it justice, but its actually a bigger difference in real life.


Turns out that the headlights already in it are after-market as well, which means it would be even bigger difference if they were stock. Here is What was in it that I took out:


and here is what I replaced those with, this is what I bought and put in today:

Here is the "action shots". As soon as I looked I could tell a DRAMATIC difference, worth every penny so far, we'll see tonight for sure.


This one I think it the best: The difference is actually MORE dramatic in real life, but this is pretty close






No worries, night pics are coming tonight.

There's an obvious difference, what I want to see is how they illuminate the road.

Very white...I like it! I have the Xtra Visions now and don't know if it will be worth it to make the jump to the SSs. Thanks for the pics!

I'm not sure if they were stock or not. The very first picture is what "WAS" in there. I took those out and put in the H13ST's. I'm guessing they have been replaced before, I bought the truck used. The comparison is between the H13U and the H13ST both by sylvania. If you can't see a difference then you need to adjust your display, there's a major difference that I think it quite obvious. check on another computer.
