R headlight bulb exploded, silverstar or xtravision for 9007
noticed when i pulled into the driveway tonight that im missing a headlight. looked in, sure nuff, dark. it sparks when i knock on it and theres glass debris in the headlight casing. so, since i have to replace one, need to replace both so it doesnt look retarded. if thats the case, i might as well go ahead and do the 9007 conversion. im going to order the harness from ntbk and some bulbs from somewhere i guess.

do i want silverstar or xtravision?

anything else i should check or be worried about since the light went and exploded itself?

SilverStars aren't that good...I've heard they burned out on my bro-in-law's friend's Miata in 3 months. If possible, get PIAA bulbs.
