I went to into CanadianTire looking around and came across a glass display containing silverstar bulbs. location Dundas west of Dixie check them out i think prices not to bad"

Wow, they sold Sylverstar at Canadian Tire!! They should be cheaper the ordering them from US.I also already saw Eibach spring at Canadian Tire

$75 USD +$9 USD shipping.$84 us = $126 Can, plus taxes.... Getting 4 Silverstars cost me around $150 bucks, little expensive for 4 bulbs

If i go to CanTire tomorrow i will try to post some prices there seems to be alot of bulbs in the case.

We need the part number to be able to order them from my local canadian tire. Please can you give us the part number for Canadian Tire.

Drove over to Can Tire on Mavis rd to buy some things and checked around but no silverstars so i half to go down to the Dundas location""to get the prices.

they are in the canadian tire flyer this week. cool!

For anyone interested ... I was in tonight to check out the pricing (only I was in a hurry so did not purchase), not too bad:$21.99 for the H4 (Headlights)$24.99 for the (9006 - Foglights)that means that with taxes, a full set is around $108.05 (CND)Now I don't have to worry about south of the border ordering and shipping.

Great post guys thank you!

thank you !I will go check out my flyer pile now

here's what the advertisement looks like, in case anyone's interested

Oops my bad, I was so excited I priced the 9004's instead of the 9003's.So the actuall price for the 9003's was $27.99.I found this out when I went back in today to pick up a set. Now I just need time to installed them. Actually ... what am I doing here ?? I'll go do that right now.

I went to my local Canadian Tire today and I saw Silverstars as well. Around 25$ each bulb. It can look expensive but it is less then ordering them from USA.For sure if one of mine burn out, I'll get it from Canadian Tire and I won't order them anymore from Sylvania directly.

Interesting sidebar: At my local CTC, the SilverStars, unlike all their other bulbs are in a locked case, and when I asked for a pair the sales clerk said I'd have to come back for them after I finished shopping, or go straight to the checkout. Guess these things grow legs! PS: All their import parts (headers, strut bars, CAIs, etc. are also locked up, unlike American car headers and other performance parts. Discrimination or just bitter experience?

At my local Canadian Tire, the Silverstar was with the regular bulbs, not locked at all

What is so special about these silverstar bulbs?

see this threadhttp://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=4784&page=2there is a comparison of stock vs Silverstar on page 3

I wonder if they carry other stuff for the Vibe....

That one seems to have flown right over me man.....

I just bought 4 sylvania silverstars at Murry's Auto Parts in Michigan and I paid $19.99 each. That also came with a $10 rebate on each pair. So..I actually paid only $60 for four!!!

Do not forget your price is in US $.If you do a quick convertion, $60 US will give you roughtly $90 can.

quote:Ok..prices not bad....what does that mean...GIVE us numbers!?!Just bought a pair from Canadian Tire.... Just over $28.00 each... First day had them in, it was pouring rain and in the dark was a noticable difference....going back to get the fog lights.

Do you happen to have the part number ? So I can have my local store order them in.And what are the prices without tax ? thank you

as previously answered in this thread:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id ... 3headlight: 9003/H4foglight: 9006 prices are going to vary, but are usually $25 USD per bulb (NOT per pair)

Hmmm wondering if I should keep my Xenons or go with the Silverstars....my Xenons cost 35$ a pair.

I am asking for Canadian Tire part number... thanks
