Silverstars?

I was at the local Advance auto tonight and found some silverstar H7's and H3's xenon blue lights they had instock.. Since i already replaced my headlights will the H3's give off a decent light over stock for the fog light?

They were about 44.95 for the pair..

The headlight bulbs are 8500k HID eurodesigns lights.. Its pretty popular on ebay but my next step may the PIAA White Extremes..

Yea there pretty good.. I had bought the fog light bulbs for my mustang a few years ago and they worked fine.. Nice light output for about 15 bucks +shipping..

Now i want to do the fog lights in the ES..

My bad, I see that they only have the regular Silverstars; not sure if those may be bright enough you.

I can never get Silverstars to last very long. I made sure to not touch the bulbs and they still go out on me. Sometimes after 6 months .. sometimes a little longer. They have a nice light.. but they have cost me over $200 over the past couple years replacing my headlights and fog lights. Take it FWIW.
