I don't know how much of a difference it makes and how much it matters to you but here are the DOT approved ones....

I may have to get a pair if I have any money left after Christmas shopping. I had a set of silverstars in my previous truck that were an awesome improvement so I'm interested to see how these compare. I just wish I would've realized that they would have fit my Jeep too before I traded it in.

i plan on upgrading my headlights soon also and want to know if the bulbs that come with those ebay headlights are any good? and if the other bulb options are any better/ legal. it has options for these: You can upgrade H4 bulbs to following:
Ultra Blue 60/55W Add $4.00
Ultra Blue 100/55W Add $6.00
Ultra Blue 100/90W Add $8.00
WHITE 100/55W Add $4.00
WHITE 100/90W Add $6.00

By far the best upgrade I did was make a new harness and get the Light housings and Osram H4 ultra white lights you can actually see what is front of you.

At one point blew a bulb and had to wait for it to be shipped and threw an old silverstar back in my passanger light was so bright you could barley see the silverstar

Hey Xjroller stay away from the blue bulbs I did a lot the trial and error thing the blue bulbs suck also the piaa lights that cost so much and claim super high wattage where some of the worst ones i tried. I ended up using Osram Hyper Whites 80/85watt you can get these and every thing else you need at susquhana motor sports they are real helpful and know there ****
