Headlight Bulbs - Any recommendations?

[vp1701]

Hello All,

One of my headlights has gone and I was thinking of replacing them both. Can anyone recommend a good bulb. I want them to be as bright as possible as I do a lot of driving in the country where street lights don't really exist. Can anyone recommend a decent bulb? Many thanks.

Vince.

Buy on-line and get something like Philips X-treme Power etc - I'd always stick with well known brands as you, like me really need to use them - and not just for show. That was dip (H7) that I was referring to. There are Night Breakers etc for main beam. You should really try search on this forum as this topic MUST have been "done to death" already.

Best mod EVER so much safer now I can see clearly, I tired better bulbs in the car make a bit of difference but HID made a HUGE difference

ive got some Philips GT150 Power2Night H7's (twin headlight) for my red ibiza sportrider the difference from standard was quite alot it lights up road signs well in advance and gives superb view of road,
also in the daylight they look good (off) as the tip is colourd in blue and suits the clear ibiza lenses very well!

My mate has philips x-treme's fitted to his golf derv and theyre blinding (lol) really bright and very clear.

He recommends them but i quite fancy hids.
