I want to Change the Headlight Bulbs was looking at Osram Nightbreakers. I see they also do a cool blue and Arctic white. Any advice on what ones to choose would be a great help. I Have already changed the DRL's and sidelights to Mtech.
 
You will not be disappointed by Nightbreakers. I fitted them as headlights and fog lights, and 'im now considering buying some for my works van. They make one hell of a difference. Mine are plain ice white and really do light up the road like nothing else. think i still have my before and after photos somewhere. i'll post them when i find them.

can never figure out how to make images appear. Anyway, hope this helps you make a decision.
 
No pictures!!
Are there deals to be had on ebay or are they pretty much all fakes?

Edit, and sorry to be a pain, are they H4's?

If you right click where the image should be u can open the link in a new window. The main lights are H7, cant remember what the foglights were, though H4 rings a bell. i got mine from amazon. got free sidelights too. Still using my standard DRLs at the momen, cant decide whether to change them or not.
 
Thanks for the pics Gizmo finaly got to open them. They look much better going to order a set this weekend.
Just changed all the indicator bulbs to the chrome type to get rid of the fried egg look.
I have had Mtech DRL's fitted for about 3 months they do make a hell of a difference near pure white not yellowish like the originals. There was some reports of the bulbs damaging the lens but i have checked mine on a regular basis and they are fine.
 
got a set of 100/90 watt main/dip beam..standard colour but much better light(brighter)
uv friendly and only 10 quid a pair on ebay ..seem good value
dunno how long they will last though ...but easy to change
mtech DRL are well sorted
 
And will be getting A LOT hotter than standard bulbs which could damage the lens and possibly the wiring loom as they are drawing nearly twice as much power and if the loom starts to melt you have a car fire, all for 'uprated' bulbs!!

the 100/90 (UV protected) are plastic lens suitable according to the website
