    Best 9003 bulbs?

    Thanks guys. Something for nothing. I appreciate the reminder on the tradeoffs. Where can I get the Tungsram NHX / Megalight+120 bulbs? I tried the Tungsram catalog and it gives me a headache. Maybe it's just me. I just don't want to end up with fakes!

    Best 9003 bulbs?

    Just wondering what the best 9003 bulbs available are today. I bit the bullet on my 04 Forester XT and ordered new OEM headlamps so I might as well order the best. I used the 9003 NHX for a while but life was relatively short especially with the DRLs. I guess that I could do that again but I...

    Best 9007 Bulbs

    Thanks for allowing me to come back when I swap vehicles and as time goes on. Glad I did based on that line no longer existing in it's previous form. Quick and lazy for once...I purchased the Philips X-treme Vision +100.

    Best 9007 Bulbs

    Hi, I hope I am not annoying anyone by coming here when I need to know a bit more about the best bulbs but I go through vehicles quite a bit and own quite a few as well. Is the GE Nighthawk NHX 9007 still the brightest bulb in 2021? Just thought that I would ask as time goes on. Never know...

    Best H7 Low Beam bulb for an 06 B9 Subaru Tribeca?

    Lol and meh......only new Subaru headlamp housings are available so aftermarkets are not an option at least on the 2006-2007 variety. Thanks.

    "80 watt" osram h7 bulbs

    Ahhhh, I actually did this 3 years ago. I can't remember why. I was probably just tired. I'd stay away based upon the advice given here.

    Roger that Virgil. The beam focus being better was what at least part of what I was after. We are tracking on a little damaged being total. Wow.

    Best H7 Low Beam bulb for an 06 B9 Subaru Tribeca?

    He gave me an answer based upon my using the mentioned 65W Osram bulbs not the 80W bulbs that I forgot I had put in which is part number 62221 as opposed to 64217. The question is whether or not it effectively makes sense to remove the 80W Osram bulbs that are sitting in there right now...

    Best H7 Low Beam bulb for an 06 B9 Subaru Tribeca?

    Happy New Year. I realize that I actually decided to go with the 62261 80w version a few years ago. Sorry about that. Would it be worth going with the 65W Vosla H7's then? I just noticed an older comment indicating that the 62261 was in reality inferior to the 65w options. I don't know what led...

    Do HID bulbs also degrade? Do better drop in replacements exist?

    Just wanted to say that the 85126XV2S1 worked out great. Wow.

    Ok, it's 2021 "ish" right now. These bulbs still haven't blown. Are these still the best out there? Thanks!

    Do HID bulbs also degrade? Do better drop in replacements exist?

    Oh I wouldn't even consider doing otherwise. This is why I come here. You all are phenomenal people.

    Do HID bulbs also degrade? Do better drop in replacements exist?

    Reminds of PVC vs PCV. I used to think that idiots had it backward when I just had automotive skills. After I became a homeowner, both became interchangeable leaving the hardware store and auto parts store guys scratching their heads. :) Thanks for the lead.
