Theres a reason why they are 55/60w Calibre from supercheap is ok, get the brighter 50% or whatever they are. Phillips good as well, but be prepared for higher prices Narva good as well. I personally used OSRM from england, best ones i came across however the Calibre were good, never tried the Narva or Phillips but heard good things the calibre 50% brighter are they actually brighter as in can you see further? |

If it has gone yellow there are ways to make em better again, but most techniques are temp only, maybe get some aftermarket headlights. There are some threads about how to fix em up, but generally headlight repair kit from supercheap work well and last longest. yeah mine are a bit faded havnt gone yellow yet but they need replacing i was going to put some new ones in the $35 globes is that for a pair or per globe and is that the calibre one? |
