quick osram question

[theshed]

just about to change my lamps to osram night-breaker/racer.
what is the fitments i need for a 99 curvy is it H4 OR H7 and does anyone know who stocks them in Birmingham as don't partially want to buy on line

[svrich]

Without going out in the rain (I'm not leaving my beer!) I'm sure they are H4. I went for the Nightbreakers and can say they are much, much better than stock. I got mine on line but can not remember where though. I'll trawl my brain (and have another beer) and get back on that one. :)

If your dipped and high beam are coming from the same bulb then it will be a H4. If they appear to be coming from different areas of the headlight they are likely to be H7, or H1.

The best way is to take the connector off the back of the bulb and see the number of spade connectors on the back of the bulb... 1 spade=H1, 2 spades=H7, 3 spade=H4.

If you do decide to purchase online, AutobulbsDirect.co.uk.

H4, as long you have standard UK lights.

The alternative (more or less equal performance) would be the Philips X-treme power. See what prices are like. As they say, H4 for std UK curvey SVS.

They'll almost certainly be cheaper online, but if you don't want that.........

Just in case, I've used http://www.powerbulbs.co.uk/ and have been happy with the service, good news is that they have an ebay shop with mucho better prices http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/Power-Bulbs-Direct__W0QQ_armrsZ1

X-treme power are much better than Nightbreakers. Personal tests with H4's on a civic showed the nightbreaker lit 10 cats eyes whereas the x-treme powers lit 15!

Comparisons of photos also showed the Philips cutoff was higher on both sides.
