Interestingly I was googling a while back. Osrams nightbreaker and silverstar or something like that seemed to get good reviews

Ive H7's in my van and had been looking something a bit better. Although mine certainly arent bad to start with and are just normal bulbs, no idea what brand.

Are the headlight reflectors in good condition, and the lens clean ? If the reflectors arent good, no bulb will work.

yeah alot of people have gave good reviews on the osram bulbs.

Not sure what kind of condition the reflector is in but i must get my brother to have a look because they are very poor lights.

Cheers

I found the Phiilips H7 X-treme pretty good in my mk4 Gti, but as steve says may actually be your lenses becoming weathered.

If you have projector headlamps I would simply fit a HID kit with a colour temp as close to 4300k as you can get. If you have reflector headlamps though stick with normal halogen lamps
