JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

I can't tell to much difference from stock. I was honestly looking at getting these though. Thanks for the pics.

the silverstars were the first "mod" i did to my rig, they have been in for over a year now.

while they are brighter than the stock bulbs, they arent nearly as bright as some of the other headlights that are available

i've had mine in for about a year and a half now, and it's one of those things that you don't really think makes a huge difference until you try to drive at night in a vehicle with regular bulbs...then you can definitely tell the Silverstars are brighter and whiter...

here's mine back when it was new and i installed the Silverstars:

if you look at the reflection on the bumper, you can tell much easier than tryng to look at the light itself

Yeah the pics you posted make it much more noticeable. Thanks. Might have to head to Autozone and pick me up a set.

Default eh..

I didn't really waste my time with silverstars. For $40 its a lil expensive for the slight upgrade in my opinion. Went straight to 8000k HIDs and never looked back. It was $250 installed with a no questions asked 1 year warranty. You can find good kits all over the internet from $100 to $200.
