If the low beam is the H4, Sylvania's website shows an H4 for motorcycles listed.elkymutt said:my highbeam headlight is a silverstar and it is much brighter than stock as well it's much "cleaner". I can ride most of the time (day and night) and not get people flashing me. For some reason I cannot find a silverstar bulb for the low beam. It has two prongs and a smaller diameter mounting surface
H4 is the low/high beam combo bulb.laimbeer said:If the low beam is the H4, Sylvania's website shows an H4 for motorcycles listed.

Did you by in any chance touch the bulb filament while installing them? The oils from the fingers can cause them to burn out more quickly.lbjester said:I've had silverstars in my Jeep and the drivers side low beam burt out within 3 months (Dealer replaced it for free) and 1 month later the passenger bulb burnt out. They are crap if you ask me :flipa
Rafael said:Low beam (left) takes an H7 bulb. I think Silverstars sucks. I did the headlight mod and compared one side with the other. The silverstar look no brighter or whiter than the stock bulb. I'm really happy with the headlight mod tho. It doesn't look like I'm riding with one light burned out...

Here is what a lot of people have done:
"Simply run a wire from the bottom terminal of the
left headlight bulb (sitting on th bike) to the middle
upper of the right bulb, and whammo, both lights on and
still has the main beam in the right hand light set."
Skippy
Hmm... when you do that and switch the high beam on, the both filaments in the H4 will be on? That doesn't sound good."Simply run a wire from the bottom terminal of the

No I even wiped them with alcohol before putting them in. Allot of people on the jeep forums had the same complaints that they didn't last long. Now as for the quality of light they produced...they were awesome...almost 50% better than stock just that they didn't last long enough.HamsFZ6 said:Did you by in any chance touch the bulb filament while installing them?

Proc said:One 55W filament takes less than 4A current. The electrical system can handle two of those without any changes.
For the peace of mind though I added an extra fuse for the second low beam.
