and i put in some silverstars which the low beams(50 or 55 watts i think, i forgot the part #) didnt help that much more but the high beams(60 watts i believe) are ridiculously better, and yes it was an easy swap for my 96 i just took the old ones and and sealed the new ones in with silicone, heres a couple pics:



i have another set of high beams, brand new same bulbs as the pic, i want to sell, ill put them in the for sale section for 35 shipped

im putting silverstars in my fogs next because one of the bulbs is blown and i figured why not... let me know what you guys think

i also got some new pretty blue taylor plug wires also, ill have pics of how those turned out in a couple days, their performance is great too

Just a word of advice on the silverstar fogs, I've had no luck with them in my Grand Prix, they last about 3 months. Maybe it's just that certain bulb # but alot of people over on Clubgp.com have had the same experience.

same here, we used them on our 02 denali and they looked awesome, however, we had to replace them about every 2 months until we couldnt afford spending $20 a pop on fog light bulbs
