What thickness of wire did you lot use when re-wiring? Amp rating? Cheers.

i use ring sportz blue 100/80.

best bulbs ive ever used, however HID's are on the cards now ;)

Powerbulbs seem to give a good service, used them twice with next day delivery both times.

Remember that the 50% brighter claim is not that the bulbs produce 50% more light - that would not be road legal. It's just that such bulbs are supposed to produce a better focussed beam to deliver the 50% more light where it is most useful. Osram Silverstar have made a difference to my Corsa C but I think it's the headlamp design which is probably the limiting factor. Perhaps the very latest HID lamp design is better. Anyone tried them?

Yeah.....

You will need 2sets - one for dipped beam and one for full beam ...... you will get the side lights free and also get a spare set.

Are they the bulbs that have that blue tint to them??

Well when you decide to change you should look at powerbulbs to buy them from. cheap and good service.

im waiting for mine to burn out then ive got a good reson to change em :)

I bought Phillips Blue Vision bulbs from powerbulbs a few months back.

They are loads better than standard bulbs, and really do improve driving visability at night.

Here you can see the difference on full bean

and here are the lights close up, as you can see no yellow in the new bulbs

used same wireing plug, just ripped it apart and soldered the wires to it! wires easy to get to switch, just take your time to do it neat

best bulbs to get are the Osram Silver Star or philips 50% brighter. £20 for a pair

Did you use the original wiring plug or just buy spade connectors for them?

I bet it's a pain in the arse to get the new wires through to the switch!

try runniong thicker wire to the lights from the switch, this will make a big difference! iv done it as has kristd and we both gained 2v over the standard wireing

Just bought a set of halfords xeon 50% brighter bulbs from halford, the most expensive ones i could find.

In daylight they look no brighter (i left one of the old ones in to begin with to compare).

Do you think i'll see an improvement from them once its dark?
