Xenon bulb recommendations

When I bought my car about 18 months ago I was very disappointed with the headlights so about a year ago I decided the bulbs must be ‘worn out’ so bought some cheapies off Amazon. They improved the light output a lot so all has been good......until today on my way home from work. BONG! “o/s dipped beam failed” Oh well, buy cheap buy twice is the lesson here.
Anyway, I’m wondering what others have used and have been happy with. Obviously I won’t be spending over £200 at the dealers, just something decent that isn’t too expensive. The car is bi-xenon if that makes a difference.

Hi mate,

I bit the bullet and bought a pair. To be honest I was suprised how good they were.

I have them for 12months and couldn't give any negative feedback.

Regards,

I went for Osram Xenarc Unlimited Nightbreakers.

Better than the failed Osram ones I took out and not too expensive. Bought mine from Amazon and the local indy charged £25 to fit as I really couldn't arsed with the messing about.
