    For a while now i have been keen to change the headlight bulbs in my car,since last winter to be precise but never got around to it.So this year as the dark nights are coming very fast i thought it was time to try new lights, the only thing stopping me was the fact i have a ford focus and read that you have to remove the whole headlamp to change bulb !! but what the heck. Any way reading many reviews on the net (as i always do lol) I read that the philips extreme power came out top in Auto express so decided to venture in to my local car shop. Just my luck they were out of stock ! and me being me patience got the better of me and i bought the last pair of ring xenon max h7's .


    Ok got back home and tackled the removal of my headlights, which to be honest was not too difficult, fitted new bulbs in daylight and could not wait to see these claimed 90% brighter exenon babies !!. Finally it was time to take the car for a spin , and initially when i was in a built up area i thought ok give them a chance, and when i hit the totally dark b roads the exitement soon vanished !! I was actually gutted that i had spent £25 on new bulbs that to be honest where not a lot better than my standard bulbs. I had read all the reviews and saw images on forums of peoples bulbs and thought ? am i missing something.

    I went back on web and read more reviews and re-read Auto express review and tey did not rate them either , but tbh i thought they were biased towards the philips bulbs as they were testing in a philips designed tunnel somewhere in Europe. To sum up I would not recommend these bulbs, yes they are slightly brighter and i mean slightly ie 20-30% visually but not on dark roads.I was going to buy the philips for my wifes car to see if they are really that much better, but i am worried i am going to plough more money down the pan.So if you have friends who have put the upgrade bulbs in ask them to take you a drive when its dark and see if you like them before parting with your hard earned.One last tip DO NOT BUY the blue tinted bulbs if you are looking for bright performance as they are actually worse than standard bulbs the way they project the blue light.

    PS Not all car headlamps are the same so these bulbs maybe work better for you than mine did in your model of car !!

    Thanks for reading,

    Dougie.
