Default Need Headlight Bulbs

So I need new Headlight bulbs for my 95 and was looking at Silver Star Ultra's for $50.00. I dont want HIDs (I dont want to deal with that mess, plus Im not good at electrical). I want something with good visibility, not worried to much about price (but dont want to be bent over the table for them)....Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks,
Matthew

HID conversions are actually illegal in nearly every instance everywhere in the US(actually, I don't think there's a single DOT approved HID conversion available, and many of them are just plain dangerous for various reasons). Hella makes excellent bulbs as well, HB2's are a DOT approved H4 bulb and probably about the brightest/most effective bulb you can get that's street legal, if you can use an HB2 bulb.

I used Silverstars for awhile but after one burned out I changed back to stock bulbs.I couldn't really tell a difference.

silverstars are a great bulb, but doing an hid conversion would be your best bet for more light i bought my kit off ebay for 50 bucks works great and was very easy to install you just plug it in and double side tape the ballest
