    I have and have been using Sylvania Silverstar headlight and fog light bulbs for many years now and am well aware of the fact that the life of these bulbs sucks. I had a headlamp bulb burn out in my 2012 Tacoma tonight. I have had them in this truck for just over 5 months. I did buy a new bulb to replace it but only because I had to but I have purchased my last Sylvania Silverstar bulb. I am going to switch to a HID setup for the headlamp and fog light bulbs but I do need suggestions as to which would be the best (highest quality) brand. I know I want a 5K system but not sure about which brand.

    Any information or suggestions would be appreciated.
