Looking to replace my headlight bulbs. Been looking at the Osram Night Breaker Unlimited. Has anyone got any experience of these?
Are the dipped beam and high beam both H7? Would these bulbs do dipped and main beam?
I see they do a standard and a blue version, do you think the standard is white in colour?
Thanks in advance..

This should help matey use the key on right hand side has all your bulb types in. They also have reviews on the bulbs you are referring to and blue coated versions. Hope this helps.

i have these as my dipped lights and they are awesome, A bit whiter than normal halogen lights. Much better then MTEC's i had a few years ago.
Not sure how they compare against the phillips xtreme vision ones

I have just replaced the bulbs on my A-Class with Phillips Xtreme Vision +130%. The difference is night and day, but mine were really old. :))

I've got these fitted full and dipped, to me they look no whiter :sad1: which is the only reason I bought them as I wanted a more white look to the headlights.

They are overated, true there is some improvement on visability over standard bulbs, but they are yellow as any will be under 4500k, it's a balance between light output and colour.
5000k gives a great Xenon look so any bulbs 4500k - 5000k if you want the crisp white to blueish white look :happy2:

I had these in my previous two cars and found them to improve one of them no end. The headlights were known to be poor and I found them to be 'ok' with the nightbreakers fitted. I had read they don't always last too long but I had no problems with mine. Amazon normally have good pricing on them too.
