Wouldn't mind knowing this too. I thought Xenon was xenon really and didn't get much brighter?

One of my OEM ones failed recently, so I swapped them both out for a pair of Osram Xenarc super bright thingies that I had in my tool box from my old R32. 

Zero difference  :grin:

Wouldn't mind knowing either.  Mine seem to be slightly different colours like one is 8000k and one is 6000k

If you search, there are lots of (Americans and Europeans) claiming they are better than OEM, there are also lots of youtube videos, but I think its difficult to see the difference.
