Looking to replace bulbs in a few different things. I don’t have room on most of them to install HID’s. Whats a clean bright white bulb? How about a yellow for fog lights? ---

Silvania Silver Star are okay, I personally use Phillips X-Treme bulbs for my cars/bikes. ---

The thin HID kits can fit anywhere. The ballasts are the size of a deck of playing cards FYI. And they can be found on eBay for $40 to $60 when Silverstars can cost about that much too. ---

Sylvania Silverstars suck balls. Get OSRAM bulbs. You’ll be happy. ---

And they can be found on eBay for $40 to $60 when Silverstars can cost about that much too. I’m not putting HIDs on my tractor. Also, the ballast will not fit in my headlamp bucket on the 58. ---

HIDs would be super ballin’ you can also find ones with long tails before the ballast so you can mount it further away… there is always a way to get them to work.
