Default Headlight Bulb Replacement

I want some new headlight bulbs (not the whole headlight) and was wondering what was the best brand to get which I could just un-plug the old bulb and add the new one no other mods needed. I would also like a light with a blue-ish tint

Heard silverstars were pretty good, though they are a white light. I'm going with those next. They might still have a $10 mail in rebate. Check their website.

Yeah they do I just picked them up tonight, I installed the PIAA fogs in my GT/CS lower bumper and they were whiter so I got the silverstars to match, I hate un-matching lights.

I have silverstars, they are good but not a whole lot different. Just slightly brighter and whiter. Overall they are worth doing and better then stock.

I believe sylvania makes blue lights called cool blue. No one really talks about them though, seen them at the store before.

they can cause they are tinted to give you the HID look without HIDs
