headlights, silverstars? Options

[Hanyo]

Anyone have any headlights better then silverstars?

I know silverstars give great white light but they super suck when it comes to life of the bulb.

I know people who change them yearly and it simply to expencive to do that, when a set of bulbs cost $50. A regular par of bulbs cost only 20 bucks.


So are there any aftermarket bulb makers that make clean white light as a fraction of that cost?

quit touching your bulbs and you won't have them burn out on you. I've been running on the same set of silverstar bulbs for the past um.... 6 years?
They burn out because they get oil from your grubby little hands on them. I simply used the instruction manual in the box they come in to use as a sort of hot pad so that I never actually touched the bulb when installing mine.

I've actually never bought silver star bulbs before. I know people who own some and I've seen countless silver star bulbs burn out in less then 2 years. If you google silverstar life span, you get to see the extent of the problem.
