Hello, just the info I was looking for. Do you know if Halfords - or similar - do a bulb kit? I'm off abroad and need to take one with me. Cheers John |

Oops.......they will probably last you in the region of three months and you'll need a new set. There are quite a few on here that have had several sets of these bulbs and wont use them again; me included. When they are lit they are fantastically bright and very white in colour; they just don't seem to last more than three months in a GP though. Neil |

Yes but get them from Click-Parts (there's a link in the members offers page with a 15% discount code when you buy online) and there all the same to replace, difficult the first time, but easy afterward. | ||

And do the Halford ones work if you try in another vehicle or connected to a 12v supply? as not unheard of for bulbs to have been banged about and filament damaged. | ||

Hi chaps! One true thing is that Osram night breakers won't last, yet they are bright - and white. My c4gp -07 "burns" about 2-3 pair H7 every year and about same amount of H6W front park bulbs. Never H1 long beams even we use them a lot in Finland. And Never any of back bulb (of course not the led ones) except couple back register lights. |
