Xenon bulbs

TheTransporter · 5th December 2020, 14:42

Hi all, I should post more...

Anyway, I have my Xenons off the car and in the kitchen.

They have polished up beautiful, and had a good clean.. they look almost new now.

While off the car I want to change all the bulbs.

I'm looking for bright, good visibility, and modern looking bulbs... any recommendations?

If they're oem, they'll be 4300K which mine were. Changed them to 6000K from DMGRS and they're nice and crisp

Thanks for replying.

I have previously changed bulbs to 6000k, and full beams to a 6000k look bulbs. To look at the car, they look great... but living in Devon and travelling single track lanes daily, the light spread is rubbish... mind you they are eBay bulbs.

So I want a set of matching bulbs, fogs, full beams and Xenons.

Just wondering what brand to go for.

Just don't buy cheap. They last a fraction of the time. Been there and suffered.

I've tried all sorts in the main beams and fogs, from leds to hid's. Settled on Osram fog breakers and Phillips in the mains.

I usually use Nightbreakers, but the D2S bulbs are £89 a piece... crazy money.

These Lunex D2S Burners are good https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-x-D2S-G...Cclp%3A2334524

Osram nightbreaker bulbs or philips equivalents is probably the brightest you'll be able to legally fit in the main beams and fogs.
