Bottom line hough Osram Night breaker plus, best legal 55w bulb on the market to date. I recommend having your headlight alignment checked after fitting bulbs for both safety and maximum light performance from your new bulbs by ensuring all of there light shines where you need it on the road.

Brigante Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 do the new nightbreakers still look yellow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 do the new nightbreakers still look yellow?I'm guessing they are, The night breaker say 20% whiter than standard bulbs, The night breaker unlimited also say 20% whiter than standard bulbs, So no change there, cool blue intense still top the list in that respect Night breaker plus say they are up to 90% brighter than standard, Night breaker ultimate say they are up to 120% brighter than standard, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brigante Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 i'm thinking bout changing my bulbs again as me cool blue hypers certainly are the whitest going but just dont seem as bright as me osram cool blue intenses on the unlit country roads so i'm thinking whether to switch back to cool blue intense and have a not as white but still quite white n brighter bulb or give the new nightbreakers ago n have an even brighter bulb but a yellow light as a sacrifice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) When you say yellow light what dya mean ? HahaSent from my GT-I9300 using Ford OC mobile appThis is osram night breaker plus; slight shade of yellow compared to the 6000kelvin and 4200kelvin bulbs saw in brigante's signature images above Slight tint of standard yellow, But nothing like the Japanese retro style fog light bulbs found in my Levin :) Edited January 6, 2014 by Lenny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
