Default Put some Silverstars in the Optima

Well folks, I bit the bullet and bought one of the stupidly easy mods I could an I am so impressed, I bought some Sylvania 'Silverstar Ultra" headlight bulbs (It's an H7 bulb BTW for Lows, and H1 for Hi's) and some Silverstar Turn Signal bulbs (1157 Bulb, OEM says 2357 but 1157 is brighter) The headlights weren't hard to change but the TS bulb was a PITA!!! lol... Its like literally reaching under a Projector to reach the dang sockets. I am very impressed because I thought the Xenon's couldn't get any better, but the ultras give off a beautiful white blue icy color, and the SS turn bulbs make the entire interior of the TS socket look like Ice...

Sorry for my spiel but I just had to brag lol, also its nice for you who don;t like reading your owners manuals to figure out the bulb type.

Oh yeah, I also bought a shifter boot to put over the gated auto shifter but I need to find some time to put that one in...

So I spent $100 on all of it, but I am happier than a clam in the sand...

Next up? LED Tail light bulbs, oh yeah I also put LED's in the front sidemarkers lol... Those were free though...

Anyone know the easiest way to pull out the front floor courtesy lights, and the license tag lights?
