    Default GMC Yukon headlight bulbs

    hey there. I have a GMC Yukon XL 2500 and I am looking to swap my old stock headlight bulbs for some new and upgraded ones. I was looking to see if anyone knows some information about what kind to get and what's the best. I'm looking for some that are either clear white or like a bluish light. Let me know.

    The Sylvania Silver Stars are great. They last a long time unlike many more expensive bulbs <PIAA> and are half the price. JMO

    Don't waste your money on the cheap tinted blue lights, go with either HID's or brand name bulbs.

    Good luck with your purchase
