A definite improvement over standard but still not great. I think the limiting factor in our case is the reflector design; there's a separate half-reflector for dip and main bulbs. Fashion over function, I think. |

So.. The Halfords bulbs are Extreme Brilliance and Ultra Brilliance, Apparently for H4 only? Super brilliance is available in H7.
I only have hearsay reports on these based on todays research into improving the lights on my daughters new Skoda Citygo. The Skoda forums reckon the Halfords Extreme Brilliance H4 is better than the Osram. The Super Brilliance H7 is not mentioned.
Personally I would stick with the Osram.

Hmmm I'm getting confused (sorry for being dumb!) In the headlamp unit, I have:
Top bulb - Dipped beam
Middle - horizontal strip with a sidelight (not working/blown)
Bottom bulb - Main beam
With the above considered, which Osram bulb do you think would be good, for the dipped beam (main beam ain't too bad, but don't like having that on when folks coming towards me, they don't see to like it!)
