I've bought some nice new Philips Xtreme Bulbs. :-) We'll see how they go. :-)

Re: Upgrade Headlight Bulbs, Which ones?
 

Well I installed the Philips Extremes and they are ace! so much more light! :-P

I definitely recommend and they cost me £18 inc Postage for the pair which I didn't think was too bad.

Thanks guys, I just checked and you can get a twin H4 HID set from HIDS4U.co.uk for £110.10 using the 'strathy' discount code!

Anything I should know or be aware of before buying and trying to install these?

I've currently got a pair of Osram Nightbreakers that I was about to replace my existing lamps with.

Osram Nightbreakers £10 for a pair
Twin HIDS £110
are they worth the extra £100?

All advice and help appreciated.

According to Ride magazine this month the human eye gets progressively worse with age. So by reckoning I need to increase my pension contributions now to afford strong enough lights by the time I hit 60.

I wonder how long it will be before insurance companies use this as an excuse the hike up the prices for older riders?

Re: Upgrade Headlight Bulbs, Which ones?
 

sorry, my bad.

didn't see that the hids-direct one are in fact a complete set of two!!

and yes they have put the price up by like £3.59 in the last few hours. even with that they are by far the cheapest.

are these the ones you have? any trouble? what's the quality like?
can you tell me what the h4-3 part means in the items title... is it compatible with h4 and h3 lamps or something?

got all my info from checking the websites and (albeit half arsedly) reading the info on each item.

Re: Upgrade Headlight Bulbs, Which ones?
 

Lol we all make mistakes :p

No i dont have them personaly but was looking at getting them, i dunno if any one else has bought from them the only hids i have are in my car but they are a 50w 6000k ebay special which cost me about 40 quid and after using hids in the car i defantly want some for the bike.

Im not sure what the difference is between the h4-4 and h4-3 but some one else may know :thumright:
