I have a 14 Ford Focus SE (US model), which I believe uses H11 for low beam (Europe may use H7).
Due to having issues with my HID retrofit (was very happy with them when there was no issues) and my being unwilling to pay someone or a shop to fix the issues, I'm thinking of just putting my stock lights back on and replacing the bulbs with HIRs.
I found out that these Osram Rallye have been discontinued (although, not sure if I could have used them anyway, as it's H7, and I think I have H11).
From the CPInc store, I was directed to its replacement, the "Vosla H7 +120 bulb." Again, not sure if I can even use that because it's H7. I did find this Vosla H11 version, though.
From this thread indicating that the Rallye have been discontinued, and specifically, this post, it looks like the Vosla may not be a good replacement, but is still pretty good overall.
I'm looking for increased visibility for night driving. I don't do any performance related activities. I mainly drive in city streets or freeways at night. Mainly, suburban driving.
Which HIRs are right for me?
I'm concerned about not burning anything out in the cabling, so perhaps the Philips Xtreme Vision XTV (not sure if those come in H11)? Would the Vosla H11 burn anything out as it might be an over wattage bulb?
Thank you!
