Silver Stars are good, but the new x-treme power are better at the periphery of the beams. Just swapped out silver stars for x-tremes in me xtrail (one blew so was an excuse). Lots of dark lanes round here and good lights are a must.

I've got the Phillips BlueVision ones in Blue (yeah, ha ha ha - my Blade's call Blue OK) and the do give a very 'clean' light.

Very bright, or is it just that they make the shadows darker?
