I have a 2004 grand Cherokee limited came with sylvania basic bulbs they got old to . Turned amber . These are great actually light the curb 150 ft. Brights wow . I figure on low beam only lighting up half of 30 ft not obtrusive. My jeep only adjusts horizontally lens are made for vertical with no adjustment other flip the switch to low beam Review: Not white. 2001 Ford Expedition - I was looking for clean crips white lights. These are not that even if the pics show a white beam. They are pretty good but not much better than the ones I had already. They are a little bit lighter than the "OEM" but not by much. To be fair, my headlight housings are smoky so that may contribute to it. I bought some LED headlights on desertcart and those are perfect. The white LEDs I got show white through my hazy bulb housing. They brought my 2001's upgrades together. I highly recommend getting LEDs and ditching these halogens. But if you wanna stick to halogens, these work great. ## Features - Lights Dim Over Time, Replace In Pairs: Your lights are a pair, one is never turned on without the other. If one bulb burns out, the other isn't far behind. Replace your 9005XS SilverStar Halogen bulbs in pairs for optimum performance. - More Downroad Visibility: SilverStar halogen headlights create a whiter light with more downroad visibility that will enhance your overall experience on the road at night. - Whiter Light For Added Clarity: The combination of down-road, side road, and whiter light achieves more clarity during nighttime driving. More clarity improves contrast and makes it easier to see objects on and along the side of the road. - Reliable Design For Optimal Performance: SilverStar has a specially designed filament, propriety halogen gas mixture, and a unique lamp coating that shifts the color temperature towards a whiter light. - The Sylvania Standard Of Quality: With over 100 years in business, Sylvania is the world leader in automotive lighting for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and the aftermarket. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001D93D5Q | | Auto Part Position | Right | | Automotive Fit Type | Vehicle Specific Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,642 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #27 in Automotive Headlight Bulbs | | Brand | SYLVANIA | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (5,255) | | Date First Available | February 20, 2008 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00046135337673 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Package Quantity | 2 | | Item Weight | 1.6 ounces | | Item model number | 9005XSST.BP2 | | Manufacturer | SYLVANIA | | Manufacturer Part Number | 9005XSST.BP2 | | Mirror Lighting Type | automotive-exterior-headlight-bulbs | | Model | SYLVANIA SilverStar 9005XSST.BP2 Multi Purpose Halogen Bulb | | Operating Life | 1000 Hours | | Product Dimensions | 1.43 x 6.5 x 5.87 inches | | Specific Uses For Product | Headlight | | UPC | 046135337673 | | Voltage | 12 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SYLVANIA - **Fit Type:** Vehicle Specific Fit - **Item Package Quantity:** 2 - **Specific Uses For Product:** Headlight - **Wattage:** 65 watts ## Images ![9005XS SilverStar - High Performance Halogen Headlight Bulb, High Beam, Low Beam and Fog Replacement Bulb, Brighter Downroad with Whiter Light (Contains 2 Bulbs) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81cZFrbxoCL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: life span** A: FYI I emailed customer service after the light went out just over 365 days.Customer Service (OSRAM SYLVANIA) Nov 28, 15:13 COT Hi Amy,Our warranty is for one year from date of original purchase. With higher performance bulbs there is less life - SilverStar's typically last 9-12 months.Regards,Customer Service **Q: Can you use them for day time lights** A: If by "day time lights" you mean, e.g., can they be installed in the car's normal headlight position/fixture and used during the day, of course they can. However, they are incandescent lights, and the longer they're on/used, the more quickly they'll run through their rated lifespan and need to be replaced. If you mean, e.g., can they be installed in the car's normal "running light" position/fixture (only comes on in daylight hours, when the car is put in a moving gear), again, sure they CAN, if they'll fit/work in the particular car's running light position/fixture. I'd probably avoid this, however, since these bulbs run pretty hot, and running light fixtures are usually smaller than headlight fixtures, with less ambient air flow around the bulb. **Q: Is this a high and low beam? I want to replace high and low on both sides** A: Fitment and application details for this bulb vary depending on the year, make, and model of vehicle it is being installed in. We suggest you may want to contact Sylvania directly at 1-800-729-3777 for assistance with your specific installation. **Q: What car models does this bulb fit?** A: You generally start out with the car, and then see what bulbs fit it, but the 9005 is a single filament bulb, normally used as a high-beam element. It was said to be used by both GM and Dodge in some of their vehicles. Not sure what imports it all fits, but if your stock headlamp is a variety of the 9005 series, this bulb will fit. Sadly though, the Silverstar bulbs have a short lifespan. Good luck. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only pleased *by D***. on December 29, 2025* Very much better than the sylvania basic without being a problem for oncoming traffic.

These are not that even if the pics show a white beam. They are pretty good but not much better than the ones I had already. They are a little bit lighter than the "OEM" but not by much.

But if you wanna stick to halogens, these work great. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Good Price for a Superior Product *by Q***K on August 16, 2011* Since the Factory supplied "Junk" only last about 2 years on this 2008 Chevrolet HHR, one unexpectedly went out on me when travelling so I stopped and purchased one at an auto parts store to replace it, made in China Crap it was but all I could get there out of town away from my local sources.. It blew out on High Beam before I could make it home on a 800 mile round trip, mostly daytime driving too so I went looking for something better on Amazon.com and found it in the form of this Sylvania product MADE IN THE USA as neither the factory bulb was nor the replacement either, bought 2 twin packs for future use, replaced both bulbs with Sylvania H13 9008 ST BP Silverstar Headlight bulbs and now, better light, more than likely reliability too but the 2 year mark is a long way off to tell, as I am told the average for those bulbs is 2 years. I'll find out the truth on that when the time comes. I have another car made in 1983 that still has original bulbs in the Headlights but that is a story for another time I Guess!!!!!! This is a superior product and supports American workers and the people in Business to sell their products, I will order more bulbs for family members cars from this vendor also, fast shipping and well protected from breakage, if there was something I could complain about you know at this point I would but there is nothing at all to with this product and vendor selling it... Feel safe in making your purchase, the "Trail" has been scouted for you by myself ahead of you, 100% approval rating in all areas here... Sylvania H13 (9008) ST BP TWIN SilverStar Headlight - Pack of 2 Update on H13 Sylvania Silverstar High Performance Headlight bulbs, one of the pair went out on low beam/daytime running lights 9/5/2015, not a bad run considering they have been on both day and night while the car has been driven since 2011 and gained about 55,000 miles since then so I'm completely satisfied.. Prices have changed a bit since then as well, should have purchased more at that time! ## Frequently Bought Together - SYLVANIA - 9005XS SilverStar - High Performance Halogen Headlight Bulb, High Beam, Low Beam and Fog Replacement Bulb, Brighter Downroad with Whiter Light (Contains 2 Bulbs) - SYLVANIA - 9006XS SilverStar - High Performance Halogen Headlight Bulb, High Beam, Low Beam and Fog Replacement Bulb, Brighter Downroad with Whiter Light (Contains 2 Bulbs) - SYLVANIA 3157NA Long Life Mini Bulb - Amber Automotive Light Bulb - Car Signal, Ideal for Parking, Side Marker & Turn Signal Applications - 2 Bulbs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4705937-9005xs-silverstar-high-performance-halogen-headlight-bulb-high-beam-low](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4705937-9005xs-silverstar-high-performance-halogen-headlight-bulb-high-beam-low) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
