That's where I got mine from about 6 months ago, and aside from a voltage problem,(loose belt on the alternator), no real problems.

Id go with HIDS. But.....if you want a simple plug and play bulb, MTEC on ebay. Way brighter than Silvania Silverstars and about the same money. A roomy bought the Silverstars and I bought the MTECS. He was pissed.
Here you go:
MTEC 9006 Ebay

Not to post jack you , but has anyone ran the 55w hids in the factory housing ? Is there heat issues as far as melting parts or can they handle it? Im looking at the ddmtuning website and they have the option for 35w and 55w. Whats best? Anyone have a set of these ,and please post wattage and color range.

I don't know why people say sylvania are even brighter. They aren't noticably brighter then any new bulb. Sylvanias sucked 5 years ago when I started using them, and they still blow out today. No change.
Get HIDs.

Silverstars were brighter than whatever I had previously been buying at AutoZone. My cousin has parabolic lenses, and the silverstars looked like his high beams were always on. I saw a definite improvement with Silverstars. However, I'd still buy HIDs. Cheaper and better.

Lots of forums posts about this, is seems 55 watts do have heat issue in projectors due to the confined space.
Now if my info is correct the oem fogs are 55w so those assemblies should be able to handle the output, not sure what if any gains that would have though. Maybe someone here has experience with that setup.
