Darren; I bought the silvervision bulbs online from EvoSport Inc. I don't recall the URL, but 1(888)520-9971 seems to be the phone #. I paid $50 for all 4.
I have the "turn technology" caps on the HRE's. I have a new set coming for the TechArts that I want to be "no-turn", but I need to double check with Ralph to make sure that they are.
