Xenon Headlight Bulbs?

Post by Josh_6n2_Polo »

Hey I would like a pair of Xenon bulbs as there a nice simple/cheap mod that really stands out? Does anybody know where I can get a set?

Cheers

i got some Osram Nightbreakers, big difference from standard, but not white enough. Maybe try Philips Bluevision as the blue is there to filter out the yellow and only has a slight blue tint, but the light is very white. you could try the cheap ones from hong kong on ebay (got some in my fogs), but id rather have good quality bulbs for your main headlights

in the dark the nightbreakers do still have a slight yellow to them, but i got some cheap blue tinted bulbs off ebay for my fog lights and the light is much more white. but the bulbs are quite bad quality ( bulbs were bent), so im guessing the phillips bluevision are going to be a crisper white
