The bulbs are 65 watt bulbs, the feedback isn't great, and they only last 760 hours? That's less than 15 hours a week. I don't know how long the factory ones last, but 760 hours doesn't seem like much.

Notice that while blue tinted, in the comparison photgraphs, the "super" bulbs illuminate no farther than the stock halogen.

I assure you that you will be more satisfied with the white light from the Silverstars, your car and sockets will be happier, and no one will wonder if you dyed your bulbs blue to match your hair.

ive never heard of the brand...not that name-brand crap is any better than no-name crap, but that sure looks like crap to me.

Brain's right - For any Infiniti, stick with Silverstars or PIAAs. Do a search for "xenon" or "silverstar" in Infiniti forums for more info.
