So what headlight bulbs does everyone use?

I'm contemplating buying some new ones and wondered if anyone has any recommendations as to brightness, colour, etc.

cheers

Well, they claim to be 100w. Saying that, '100/90w' is stamped on the bulb base.

100w are illegal.

Reports on here say the Osram Night Breakers are pretty super fantastic.

As above, Osram Night Breakers or Philips X-Treme Power are probably the best 2 non HID bulbs you can get. However for a little bit more I'd rather have a set of HID's
