Default Headlights

Hi I am looking to upgrade my bulbs, and was wondering if anyone could recommend anywhere at a decent price to get a full set of bright white xenons (side dipped and main beam) thanks

does your car already have xenons if so whitest is 6000k or they start turning blue over that rating, tbh for choice and variety of budgets ebay is best as all the companys advertise them on there

well you can get slightly whiter bulbs in halogen form like the philips or halfords extreme ones but you will never get the crisp light of xenon

You'll find plenty on ebay which is where I got mine from.
Also swap your number plate and interior lights for led's but beware of super cheap ones as they can be a bit shit and not last long as I found out. Can't remember the exact ones I bought second time round, but I did spend a bit more and got some good ones.

I'm in the same position, want to put some decent H1 bulbs in my car but unsure whether to go for the Osram Night Breaker Unlimited, Philip's Vision Plus Xtreme or the Philip's White Vision. I'm after a nice bluey white light??????
