Default Headlight Bulbs - where from?

Hi guys,

Need a set of spare bulbs for a trip to France next month. Checked eBay but they didn't have any. Any idea where's a good place to get them as well as other parts in the future?

Cheers =)

Yep, I used Halfords Super Brillience which as pretty good. Have Ultra's on the car and they are even brighter.

What about these: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...egoryId_246903

Or the normal ones here: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...egoryId_246903

I am assuming that is the right wattage?

Ebay, This is what I use The older version (X-Treme Power) won Ride's last bulbs product test, and this link is for a pair not just one bulb so fit them before you go and take the used ones as spares

+1
I've had these for 6 months now. Very good compared to standard.
Lot of people also recommend osram nightbreakers.
