geez, i should contact them and get commissions for all these referral

 

Naw, you should work for Visa and get a piece of the 3% exchange rate fee . . . (I would've used AmEx if you told us) darn weak USD . . .

 

OK, I'm WAY late to this post but just saw it and must say "Yet another great post, Kev!".
I'm ordering these bulbs! Looks great on all 4 corners. Thanks-

 

hehe yea, i am kinda obsessed with lights.. haha

always one of the first things I mod, small price, big diff IMO

 

Agreed. So since your posts look like you have tested every light made for our cars, what DRL bulbs do you think WILL match the 6000K garax low beam HIDS the best?

 

whlkev- I ordered my Philips Silvervisions this week. Thanks again for the posts!

 

Just order mines thanx

 

Try high power LEDs from v-leds.com. Even better result with a crispt and bright output when flashing and no yellow/orange reflection when off. Have them in the front and back. Well worth it.

 

How do you get LEDs to work as flashers? Did you need to add resistors or something? If it's plug and play this is great, otherwise I'd go with the silvervision bulbs.

 

Sweet...never seen this post before. I just ordered two sets! Thanks for sharing.

 

I ordered one set. I liked it and now I'm getting a second set for the back. Made the same mistake as several others on this chain.

 

what was the mistake?

 

Ordering one set instead of two to cover front and back.

These bulbs are fantastic. They look great and they seem brighter than the stock ones. I used to run them on my BMW before I switched to Lexus. A single set lasted 7 years!

 

Thanks Batman.. I just ordered 2 pairs.

 

Time for plan B..

Email I received from Autolamps Online. Looks like Phillips is on back order and may also discontinue this line of lights (WY21W SilverVision) Any other suggestions?

Dear Customers
Firstly thank you again for your continued patience.
Unfortunately Philips have advised us today that there is no likelihood of them having any more of these until July and there is a question about it being discontinued but this is unconfirmed. We ran out of the product and have been trying to source them from other Philips Distributors both here and abroad . As yet we have not turned up a sufficient quantity to fulfil all our orders and we are still trying to make up our quota.
If, by the beginning of next week we cannot find sufficient numbers to fulfil the orders we will update you and offer full refunds.
We can only apologise for this situation which is entirely out of our hands and Philips cannot tell us exactly what the problem is but as soon as we have full and complete information we will contact you.
Sorry for the delay and the inconvenience.
