I have the Mtec super white 55w in my current GTI which are perfect colour but looking for something brighter to go in my Pirelli when I get it, are the 100w a nice upgrade to the 55w mtec bulbs? And still the same colour

I have these fitted to my ED30 what a difference over the standard bulbs

Had these before lasted 11months, then Mtec super white 55w, now Mtec super white 100W. The rings are not as bright or as white, and they cost more!!

Yeah did exactly this in mine, would say 100w are about 20% brighter, had them 8months with no problems so far, others on here are using 100w Mtecs as well.

all ok so far, he said not wanting to test fate  :signLOL:
Mtec must sell loads of these, the only problem is that they are for offroad use due to 55w legal restrictions. They are no way as bad or as bright as HID kits, which I have had in the past. There is going to be a safety factor designed into the wiring loom, usually stress safety factors are 8 times, only guessing....

If my being honest not much different just more expensive :confused: & the philips are supposed to be the most powerful roal legal bulbs you can buy.
