Don't waste your money mate.

I drive around 1000-1500 miles per week and have tried every single bulb upgrade out there.

Most bulbs only last a few months which is terrible especially when they cost upwards of £30 a pair.

Best lighting upgrade I have ever done on the Foz and the Caddy is to go HID - wins hands down everytime.

My Foz HID kit has been in for over two years and has never faltered.
The Caddy kit has been in for 18 months but has had well over that as used nearly every day (night).

Best value for money kits I found were from Lightec Autostyle.
You need the Bi-Xenon kit and 6000k is nearest to factory HID colour and you even get FREE LED sidelight bulbs - Not bad for £55 and so easy to fit - You just unplug your bulbs and replace with the kit and connect a couple of leads to your battery and another couple of leads plug into your original bulb holders:

Even passed two MOT's in the Foz and one MOT in the Caddy.

There's a set of Osrams for £10 pair and £14 for Philips.... hmmmm

I used HALFORDS ULTRA BRILLIANCE back in the day and they were impressive and always come in the 2-4-1 deal at winter, but everyones always banging on about these two sets....starts getting complicated then though when you talk HIDs lol

Also dont the HIDs have a horrible electrical ticking at the balast where it's converted?

a lot of uprated bulbs pull too much current and generate so much heat that they can melt wires (or connectors in my case) . i put HIDs in mine and theyre 1000000x better. excellent illumination and the bulbs last forever Laughing
