Chris,
I installed a set of E-code headlights in my friend's Audi 90 and put the
Sylvania Silverstar bulbs in them.  Yes, they are visibly better than the
average halogen bulb - their light is whiter without the use of magic blue
coatings.  I'll be putting E-code headlights in my Vanagon in a few days
and I'll use the same light bulbs in it.
