Default SylvaniaSilverstar

What I did is take 400 grit sandpaper and really get at your lenses until they are clear plastic again, get some Sylvania silver Star 9007 bulbs and cover the lens with your face clear coat and you'll be able to see just fine. Worked for me.

Not even close to the same light output. Your Silverstar bulbs will last a year, and you'll be buying them again.

Maybe the Auxitos didn't need clocked... I am thinking about the bulbs in my Mustangs. I'll try to get a pic of what I mean when I get back home.

I used auxito bulbs in mine with some brand new lightning style housings just aligned the bulb the way the directions stated I believe if your looking at the bulb head on its flat edge is straight up and down to get proper beam pattern I haven’t been able to find a better combo personally.

Yep, it's a great combo. I've used Sylvania Silverstars, Wagner Britelite's, and even the Roush version of both. The Auxito's kick the trash out of the others.

I still want to hit them up on fog light bulbs for mine...
