Philips Vs. Osram

[Amr]

GOD damn, my right H7 beam blue vision was blown off yesterday !!

I bought 3 pcs to avoid this situation. one was gone and this is the second.

I wont buy philips again! excellent lights, less operating hrs i will get HID next step and go for the pirate look for a while.

Sounds to me like you're doing something wrong. Did you touch the bulb glass when you installed them? The grease on your fingers causes the bulbs to overheat and eventually blow. I had Philips 50% bulbs in for 3 1/2 years with no problems, and they'd still be there if I hadn't put Xtremes in!

no no i didnt touch the bulb, i do magic to avoid that.

well, TBH I have the control unit that opens all the lights a bit wanky,

the dash lights goes up n down and never settles. lights fats blinks and then dims down acutely.

May be an electonice failure to the wires? on/off quickly. may be but acctually i was pissed off.

Sorry thread hijack going here, Ibiza with two projectors in the headlight unit, H7 are the dipped beam, are H1's the main beam?

cheers



Dont worry guys, wrong section of the forum!

yes this is right,

H7 - Main dipped beam.
H1 - High beam.
H3 - FOG lights.
