Ray Heath Jr Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 I have a set of 5K Silverstar D3S bulbs I would like to put in my Edge. First time I have messed with the D3S size HID. What is the trick to get these bulbs out? Don't want to brake anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjb89 Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Take the headlights off it will make the install much faster. Any reason you chose the silverstars? Edited November 13, 2016 by gjb89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjb89 Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Should look into the Osram CBI I think you would be more satisfied with those. They are 5000k also and are a far superior bulb. Just my .02 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Halstead Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 CBI is by far the best bulb on market 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Heath Jr Posted November 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 Well crap, where were you guys when I was buying my Silverstars? Guess I'll put them in, see how they are, and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 If it's any comfort, Osram and Sylvania are the same company. Osram is the "high end" brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Halstead Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 for the record. H9 is way better than H11, I don't even know what Halogen Bulb# the Edge runs, but My 11 Fusion takes H11 and I just converted to H9 and the results are tremendous (I'll never run PNP HID) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
