GZ 250 Forums - Headlight Bulbs.

I poking around on the net a little, I see that the OSRAM Silverstar and the GE Nighthawk replacement bulbs come highly rated.

Are these the right models?

Here is a quote from another website about OSRAM vs Sylvania vs GE:

I tried the Sylvania Silver Star bulbs and also noted the shortened life-span.
While researching this I ran across a very....er, "illuminating" article.

Article Quotes:
"Osram, the well-established German lampmaker, sells a line of automotive bulbs they call "Silver Star". These are Osram's top-of-the-range headlamp bulbs, equivalent to Narva RangePower+50, GE Night Hawk, Philips VisionPlus, and Tungsram Megalight Premium. They produce the maximum legal amount of light while staying within legal power consumption limits. They have colorless clear glass."

and,

"Osram bought the well-established American lampmaker Sylvania in the early 1990s, so Osram is now Sylvania's parent company. Sylvania also sells a line of automotive bulbs they call "Silver Star", but it's not the same product. The Sylvania Silver Stars have blue glass. Light output is of legal levels, but as with all blue-filtered bulbs, you do not get more light from them. The Sylvania SilverStar bulbs have a very short lifetime, because the filament is overdriven to get a legal amount of light despite the blue glass."

I bought the Osram Silver Star bulbs and what a difference. Last much longer, and cheaper, too!
