Sylvania. They make a variety of H1's including the Silverstar. So far so good on mine (about 3 months now).

I don't think you can find H1 Silverstars locally though. Anywhere I have seen that sells Silverstars locally doesn't have the H1 size. I had a set of crappy APC H1's on my mom's RSX and they barely lasted 5 months. If anyone can get Silverstars in H1 locally, post up though.

I can't seem to get more than 4 or 5 months top out of aftermarket bulbs. I've got my OEM ones back in my head lights and they haven't blown. THey just look like crap being that nasty yelloish tone.

I bought my H1 silverstars in Hamilton, ON at Performance Improvements. I had a real hard time finding them too. Canadian Tire has it listed in the computer, but no price or availability yet. Anyway, the place in Hamilton carries them. One of their other locations may have them too, but you'll have to call.

Thanks for the tip, I'll check out my local PI and see if they have them.
