European OSRAM Silverstars, OSRAM Supers and Philips VisionPlus produce unfiltered white light. North American Sylvania Silverstars (such as those posted by d0pey) have a coating on them to produce that cool white or pseudo-HID look (call it whatever you want). I will admit, the Sylvania Silverstars do look nice... and not cheap blue like the other ricer lights on the market.

If you want those bulbs, as G2 Racer about them... he has a set. If you want good bulbs with NO filtered light then talk to me about the European bulbs.

Ryan, how much do the european bulbs go for (h4)?

Are they brighter/whiter than the pics dopey posted?

Interested in getting a pair

Whats wrong with "Ricer Light", they're cheap too...

You should avoid buying the US Spec and go to PowerBulbs and order a pair of Osram Silverstar as they have no filter on the bulb.

as far as i know, nobody here in toronto carries them...and you can't order them online at the sylvania website cuz they only ship within the US according to their website.

CT carrries the cool blues, just don't see why they don't carry silverstars!

anybody know how those osram silverstars compare to sylvania silverstars?

found a place in Toronto that actually carries them. the place is called Byco located at 1320 Ellesmere Rd. unit #8. phone # is 416 298-2933.

each bulb is around $41 plus tax.

also found a site comparing osram silverstars and sylvania silverstars:

I checked the Philips US web site and they have Blue Vision bulbs there, as does the Powerbulbs.com site.

At Canadian Tire the Philips headlight bulb that they have is, I think, called Cool Blue.

Are Philips Blue Vision and Cool Blue the same thing or do they just have Blue Visions at CT and I just have the name wrong? On the Philips web site I can't find any mention of the Cool Blues.
