Hey thanks all for your comments Bow down - replaced bulbs today that were almost black - no wonder they were giving no light out ! We have replaced them with some extreme brightness bulbs and the difference is amazing!!

Why not put some led sidelight bulbs in now? I changed mine last week and it looks much better than before,but now I've seen your headlights I'm going to have to order some headlight bulbs aswell

I cant find the thread..

of late last month - when someone on here described an HSE main beam upgrade to a d different OSRAM bulb that really did the business....very very bright white beams....I seam to recall they were OSRAMs

I just wonder which grade of bulbs these were ?..... as I have done most of the front of the D3 with LED's its only the main beam / flash ones that are still standard H8.

I have looked at Halfrauds & they have a whole range 20% more ...60% more 120% more in there own brand...& also sell similar Bosch ones.

What is legal as reagrds upgrading these to a brighter / whiter type ?....what will the plods stop you with ?

My recent purchases from Hids4u had a leaflet about various OSRAM products one being a head light bulb....do Hids4U supply these, which are legal to fit.

I have noticed that the main beams on my D3 do point a bit skyward & illuminate the trees etc...so when I do upgarde from Hids4u I will have to get adjusted.

Hi. H7 on all main beams for D3 and 4 regardless if halogen
Xenon or adaptive xenons

H8 is only fitted in cornering lamps in both 3 and 4

I have just fitted the Osram Night Breaker Gold limited edition, not sure what difference being gold on the point of the bulb makes, but I am stunned at the difference in light . I guess it does not take much to improve on the Halogens. I am aware they will not last as long but at the price they are worth a go before trying to get a second hand set if you can find them.
