Brad's Auto Reviews

When I was I child like so many of us who grew up just outside of Toronto, Ontario - Mosport International Raceway played a huge role in our love for  motorsports. I was lucky enough to be able to get up close with the drivers and their cars since my father was involved in the sponsorship of races and was even involved in Swiss Chalet's sponsorship of Canadian racing legend Eppie Wietzes.

As we have all seen at times on the evening news this can result in some unfortunate consequences for everyone involved. We all know that some drivers are quick to engaging in road rage tactics the second some one does them wrong. The most popular way of showing

2013 Hyundai Accent with SYLVANIA SilverStar® ULTRA Headlight bulbs When it comes to vehicle safety during the winter there are those out there who might not even consider brightening their path by upgrading their headlight bulbs. Over the weekend I switched out my factory installed bulbs with a new set of SilverStar® Ultra headlight bulbs from Sylvania. I was actually amazed that the second I made the switch I noticed a difference right away. Even with just the day time running light on. Once I turned my headlights on it was obvious that they were much brighter than the ones that originally came with my car. The first thing I noticed was that they covered a much wider area providing me with improved vision for night time driving. I was impressed at how the street signs stood out more clearly and pedestrians were much easier to see. A definite safety advantage as nighttime driving has its challenges especially if you are driving with a dimly lit headlights. The advantages of much
