I have been debating over doing an LED upgrade for some time ( For atleast my lows in my quad headlights ) but between all the options out there and not knowing which is the best quality brand,cost to upgrade, and issues related to them I think I have decided for now I may hold off on upgrading to LED.
Which got me thinking about doing factory halogen conversions ( H11 to H9 for lows , 9005 to 9011 for highs and possibly even 9006 to 9012 for fogs ).
Here is my dilemma , I currently have Sylvania Silverstar Ultra's in H11 and 9005 for my lows and highs. They are definitely an improvement over factory but still lacking. And having have had a highbeam burn out after 2 years has prompted me to look into alternatives.
When looking for bulbs to use for converting to H9,9011,9012 I am having a hard time finding anything beyond factory replacement. Not much in the form of higher tier upgrades such as a silverstar or a silverstar ultra or a ZXE etc...etc..
Does anyone know for example if a factory replacement Sylvania H9 bulb still has better specs than something like a H11 Silverstar Ultra?. I have tried looking up lumen specs/color temperature etc.. on the different bulbs and am not having any luck.
I'd rather not convert to a standard H9,9011,9012 if my Sylvania Silverstar Ultra H11,9005,9006 are technically better spec'd than them to begin with.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
