As i do not have bi-xenon bulbs, and they are a £3k retrofit from HazzyDayz.
I am looking to get a pair of Halogen H7 bulbs for my 6R.
Does anyone know which ones are good or really close to the Xenon brightness or look?
I have seen so many but can't make my mind up.
Please help.

From personal experience I think the MTEC H7 Super White bulbs give the best look and they also give better visibility in comparison to the OEM bulbs.

Yeah the ones I had had a little projector like thing on the front which is probabky why they were pretty dim
maybe nore expensive better quality ones without s projector dome thing would be brighter? Mine were only like a couple of ££ haha

If you want to actually improve light output rather than being a chump with super white lights then go for osram nightbreaker plus.
Ive just fitted a pair to the volvo and the improvement is well worth the small outlay.

Agreed, put some in my last Polo and they made the old bulbs look like tea candles

Philips Diamond Vision bulbs are quite nice. Not road legal mind you but they give that xenon effect with a nice slight blue tint as well. Light output is also quite good.

What im looking for is a nice whiter appearance to my bulbs which come close to the Xenon look, and give me better vision of the road

So you can't get bulbs that give a more white appearance and better visibility than the OEM bulbs? That's utter BS.
Get yourself some MTEC H7 Super White bulbs, not only are they white, they give much better visibility than the OEM bulbs. Albeit not as good visibility as the Osram Nightbreakers and some of the top end Phillips bulbs. If you want a white look and better visibility than the standard bulbs, you can't go wrong with MTECs.
