Is it necessary to have the shorter bulb or can i get away with the standard 45mm bulb. Dont want the bulb to hit the anti glare fitment in the headlight !! Ta
 
These are the ones I got:

Really good quality, great price, next day delivery, quick & easy to fit, only took me about 10mins!

I got 6000k and this is how they look:

H7 6k in mine and 2MOT = no failure for me
6k i agree are a bit bluey so might go for 4.3 or 5 nearer next winter when needed more
would have preferred the small (minute) ballasts but hey ho can't have it all

Mine are 6k too but not blue at all to be honest. They're very very bright white!

The only time I fined mine do look slightly blue is when it's raining for some reason :shrug:
 
weird, mine def got a slight blue hue when you look at them.
doesn't worry me but would prefer a brighter light on the road at times.

It may be down to quality of the kit/bulb maybe?

As 6k is supposed to be completely ice white, 5k meant to have slightly more yellow look, and 7k supposed to be slight blue look. That's what I was led to believe anyway :shrug:
 
Ok installed the Supervision H7R 5000k 50W Kit easily enough and took about an hour for both sides.

There not as bright as i thought they would be. When i first turn them on they have a nice white glow but after a few seconds they go yellow. They dont look like HIDS just good quailty standard bulbs....although ive yet to test them at night...............any ideas ?

Also has anyone else put in 20amp fuses like it says in the instructions ?. Think iam using 10amp fuses and the lights are turning on and off ok....although i havent had them running for long.

Not increased my fuses and I'm on 55w.
Mine are very very white at 4.3k can you get some pics up?
 
ive not changed my fuses, but am only running 35w. plenty bright enough though. and mine are 6k and theyre white with a very slight tint of blue in them.
 
So what would be the best bulb's to get.

The xenon shop h7 xenon bulbs or the osram nightbreakers?

Looking for the brightest, crispest, whitest bulb lol.
