Brightest H6024 sealed headlight - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was looking to go the led route with headlights since the old halogen yellow is just no cutting it for my old eyes. The LED light just seem way to expensive right now so looking at sealed beams that are around 20-30 a headlight. Anyone use the Wagner brightlite or Sylvania Silverstar and notice a difference over standard halogen headlights? Any other recommendations,, I like the white light over the yellow headlight

Check the connectors on your current bulbs. If they are on short pedestals, that Sylvania bulb may not work. I ran into that issue with standard halogen bulbs. First ones I tried looked like the Amazon offering for the Sylvania, flush with bulb back. Didn't work with my existing connectors. Went back to store and traded for ones with the pedestals. Those worked.

BTW - It looks like the Amazon offering of the Wagner might fix the pedestal issue.

Haven't tried the two you are interested in but if the forum opinions are favorable, might give them a try. Really growing to hate the blind-o-matic LED bulbs on most newer vehicles.
