Love them!! however, compare with real HID, silverstar does not have enough light output. Before i get real HID kit, i am happy with it for now. Cus they are very + they are cheap now with $10 rebate..
9005 conversion will not last!! the bulbs will die out quickly as they are not intended to be your standard low beams.

I used 9005 sylvania cool blue bulbs in my low beams for a while before converting back to 9006 because one burnt out after 2 months of use. Plus the 9005 doesn't improve the viewing distance and it creates bright spots in the field of vision. I didn't like the conversion and don't recommend it.

Gotta say, just as all others who have done it - GET HID!!
