Hi,
There was a couple of different upgrades discussed here. With the Silverstar Lamps you don't have to upgrade the wiring and relay. They are a direct plug in replacement for the stock lamps. Just plug them in.

For us European guys with H4 headlights I assume that the following is what we want?

H4 SilverStar Headlight
High Performance Halogen Headlight - Dual filament for both high beam and low beam - For Low 910 +/- 10%; High 1500 +/- 10% Low 55; High 60 ~4000K

I upgraded from Silverstar's to Silverstar ULTRA. Really made a big difference. Just as above: Plug -n- Play. I also upgraded my fog light elements to Silverstars. (If you need model number, let me know). The old H3's for the fogs were appearing yellow in my field of vision after Ultras were installed.

Ok, I will se if I can find the Silverstar ULTRA somewhere in Denmark.
Its funny that the regular Silverstar seems impossible to find in Sweden but its not a problem in Denmark. Now I just have to find the Ultra's.
No need for fog lights, since I have installed RS brakeducts ;-)

I put the Silverstars in my 964 and a few weeks later, Silverstar Ultra's became available. I put the Ultra's on another vehicle and they are much whiter and brighter. At $49.00 each, the price is steep, but they seem to put out a wider pattern as well as whiter light than the regular Silverstars.

On Slyvania's web site for the 911 (964) year 1993:

Low/High beam:
9004SU Silverstar ULTRA for Ultra Night Vision - The Whitest and Brightest Halogen
9004ST Silverstar High Performance Lighting: The Whiter and Brighter Halogen
9004XV XtraVision Halogen Upgrade: Up to 20% Brighter
9004CB Cool Blue Halogen Upgrade: White Hot; Super Cool; 100% Street Legal
9004LL Long Life Halogen Upgrade: Lasts two and a half times longer

Foglights:
H3-55W
H3ST Silverstar High Performance Lighting: The Whiter and Brighter Halogen

I went back to 1989 and they are the same model numbers...
