lookalike litronics

[99-Boxster-MK]

I think a nice white bulb is a big improvement over the yellow tinge you get with the normal bulbs..

Just got my bulbs from xclusivecar, and they look great..

Didn't know the headlight fixture came out so easilly kinda cool..

Thanks again

output is less with blue "ricer" bulbs but having gone from Halogen H7 to Litronics ($1100 group buy from Brandwine) I have to say its not very much of a difference if you drive in Urban/suburban areas, maybe a bigger difference in you live out in the sticks..
Sure they look cool to others but Litronics hardly make the whole road light up.
If you can get rid of the yellow look with aftermarket bulbs and still get decent lighting I would defiinitely recommend going that route.
Save your $1200 for some nicer wheels or tires.
Litronics would have been in a bottom of the list upgrade for me.

I've used Sylvania SilverStar for a few years now in my Vette and they're much whiter than the standard Halogen bulbs (I put one bulb in and compared). When you're on back roads there's a definite difference. Plus they're only $20/bulb so what do you have to loose? Not a ton of cash.

The bulbs I got are great, sorta an ice white.. Not trying to make them look like litronics, but they do look close to the casual eye. Just not worth it for me to spend 1200 bux on a set.

If they came with the car then, sweet but to swap out my perfectly fine lights for those just does not make sense to me The new bulbs make me more then happy..

I can attest to that. In town there is not a big difference over regular halogens but on rural roads it is night and day over the lights on my daily driver. I feel like I can't see crap after I drive the boxster.

Hey guys i saw that walmart sells the sylvania H7 silverstars for $37per pair. How many pair would i need. I assume i'll need 2, but would prefer to know before getting them. I dont wanna buy 2 and have to take one back, also would hate to buy 1pr. and have to break down such a task into to sessions. thanks for help.

All you need is a pair. I have these in mine and it's a lot better than stock. But they're no Litronic. Any one have one for sale?

I've been thinking about some headlight mod as well on my 98 box. It seems like most people are suggesting the silverstars over the ebay eurodesigns. Is there a change in color with the silverstars like the ebay types? And, do you need to change the foglight as well to match if the colors are different? I prefer a white light. Thanks!
