Quick headlight bulb advise needed
« on: September 25, 2010, 04:48:12 pm »
Hi guys, looking to upgrade my headlight bulbs from the very yellow looking oem ones. My question is, are these the ones to go for? There are a 50watt and 100watt set on eBay, just wondering if these 100w ones on the link below will be ok?

Thanks

100w will be illegal and may damage the circuitry or even the headlight unit. I've got some osram nightbreakers (h7) going for £12 a pair delivered :)
