Best aftermarket headlights!

I am looking to replace the bulbs in my headlights. I would like some opinions on what would be the brightest NON HID bulbs for a 06 Dodge 1 ton. Thanks!!

I replaced mine with Silverstars about a month ago and it's a huge difference. I'm going to change out the driving lights with the newer Silverstar Plus. I haven't found the Silverstar Plus for the headlights, only for the driving lights...weird that they haven't released that replacement yet.

if you use silverstars, buy an extra bulb and carry it in your truck. in my last ctd, i used them and they didn't last too long- lit up much better though and price was right.

silver stars suck. in a one year span- i had to replace a bulb three times. i contacted sylvania-they admitted to me, they are only rated for a life span of one year!!! i put ge nigh hawks in- no problems in 15 months!

I have replaced both my fog light Silverstar bulbs in the past year, I'm sure it won't be long until the headlights go. How do those GE's look at night compared to the Silverstars?

Silverstars burned out once a week. PIAA every other month. Hella, had them in for two years so far.

i had the phillips vision plus on my 2002 toyota tacoma. they were great bulbs also. but at that time- you could only get them form europe-england. were not available in the states. i am assuming they are available now?? they are also better than the silver stars.

Yeah, the Sylvania Silverstars burn out rather quickly. Look for Osram Silverstars. A little brighter than Sylvania, and last a lot longer.
