Looking to get some advice --I have a 96 civic ex and started I started messing with the headlights today
I bought those Nyoka arctic lights-anyway I had a hell of a time pulling the passenger light out and was disappointed with
the brights compared to the original output. Was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience with these bulbs?

kind off off topic related, but a bunch of my friends have used those brand and are disapointed with the outcome. yes they are pretty bright and look cool, but my silverstars are holding up alot better than theirs.

i was going to buy those sliverstar for my headlight at the autozone couple week ago and i didnt have any $ that time. I was just checking out what they have in autozone b/c i never been into that place. So is the sliverstar light bulbs last long time? they bright right? Last time i saw it they got diff type of sliverstar bulbs like series or something

I just put new headlight in friday and it sucked. It was hell getting them to fit up right and the thing the hold's the bulb sucked and I had to just tape them in until I get a better fix because before I tapped them they would go off when I hit a bump lol.
