Good Xenon Style Bulbs?

Featured Replies

Reccomendation for headlight bulbs that are xenon style? Was looking at getting the Osram cool blue intense as they aren't too badly priced on Amazon at the mo but have heard mixed reviews, thoughts?



Your best option is definitely to stick with either Osram or Philips as the majority of the xenon effect halogen bulbs just have blue film on them and are absolutely crap for output, beam pattern and brightness.

Osram cool blue intense would probably be your best option, although the Osram Nightbreakers will be brighter and look whiter compared to standard halogen bulbs if your looking for the best performance.

Cheers, got some h7 and h1 Osram cool blue for 22 quid.

That's not a bad price for both sets to be fair...let us know your opinions on them when installed :)
