dont waste your money... i had the silverstars on my old integra and it wasn't all that great. I suggest getting PIAA bulbs. Good quality and they look nice (those are the bulbs i have on my car).

My silverstars are awusome in my 90 CRX and my 87 Civic, they both have lasted about 4years now. A friend of mine tried the Ultra's and said they werent anything different than the normal SilverStars so idk if i would spend the money on the Ultra's. And actualy the last time i looked they dont make the Ultra in H4 for some reason.

to the person who said they only lasted 8 months, you do realize you cant touch the bulb with your fingers, if you do you will significantly decrease the life of the bulb

I had the regular silverstar in my 98 Taurus before which lasted 2 years until i got rid of it and now my fit had it since I bought it in October 06... no problems at all, in both cases lighting was improved but more so on the fit which I suspect the harness can handle more current... But last time I looked in the store I didnt see 9003 for the fit for Ultras though

I just installed the regular silver stars on my car yesterday cause the shop I bought them at didn't have the ultras in stock. they called all the stores in their region and no one had them in stock, so I just went with the regular ones. they do in fact make them in 9003 size though.

lighting is a little brighter then OEM and looks nicer (whiter) too.

I'd recomend you to just save your money and get some HIDs, that's what i'm doing once I save up enough.

$40 > $500 IMO

HID is nice, but i would only do a Bi-xenon high/low beam setup, i wouldnt loose the high beam especialy with the perfect cutoff the Fit has
