Silver Xtreme bulbs!
Just bought a pair of Silver Xtreme bulbs for my Civic.
The bulbs look silver, but when you turn your signal on, they illuminate amber just like stock bulbs.
This is a must have upgrade.
If anyone is interested, I bought them at: www.visionbulbs.com
The store is cool... Just enter your car, and select the lights you want.
Hope you guys enjoy!

Rep Power: 0 They have every format of bulb, for all cars. All you do is go to their store, select your car, and pick the lights you want (ex. front signals).
They send you the bulbs you need. I got some for my 2002 Civic, they're wicked!
Check them out: www.visionbulbs.com

I doubt they're as bright as stock. I actually tried to paint one with a little bit of silver. Well it's maybe 50% painted and the light output sucks. I can't imagine if the whole thing is painted. Prpbably can't see them at all during the day.

The Silver Xtreme bulbs appear to be very professional. I don't exactly understand how they are painted, but the chrome coat is very thin. You hold it up to light and you see the amber clearly.
Trust me, I would not have paid $25 for something that someone painted in their basement. These lights are very professional, and they do light up very bright.
I wish I had a digi-cam to send you guys pics... They really look great.

Rep Power: 811 Exactly. Even the amber bulbs are barely bright enough by themselves. Remember that amber is also a coated bulb (clear bulb coated with orange), so that in itself reduces light output.

You should seriously get them for your Civic... They make such a difference in the appearance of your clear lenses.
Talk soon...

Rep Power: 272 Hey guys,
I have the Silver Xtreme's in my Civ as well.. I'll post my pics tonight (at work right now :P) But yeah, I agree with you -- they're definately not as bright as stock (since the stocks are clear bulbs illuminated through an orange plastic insert) but they definately are bright enough. Pics tonight.. later!

Rep Power: 811 Unless they developed a way to make chrome colored glass, they will fade. Any coating on a bulb won't last. I bought blue bulbs for my cluster and they didn't even last a month.
