I have been in the motor trade for 25 years and I have witnessed the development of headlamp bulbs throughout those years. I recently got my wife a newish BMW 320d without HID headlamps, thinking that the normal Halogen couldn't be that bad, well the first time my wife drove it at night, I needn't say anymore. I immediately considered an HID conversion, but as it was for the wife's car thought that keeping it legal would be the safer option. I looked for a legal upgrade and eventually after reading several reviews and forums decided on these, and I all I am going to say is 'why don't BMW fit them as standard', if they continue to make HID an optional extra.
It is scientifically impossible for replacement bulbs to actually significantly increase the length of beam from a headlamp as the reflector and lens control that, but they can increase the brightness/whiteness of light produced enabling the beam to be adjusted (within legal limits) to achieve the maximum visible beam pattern and these bulbs certainly do that.
I have just fitted some to my Mk 6 Fiesta and they have really improved those as well. (Please note that the fitment of bulb may not be the same for a BMW and a Fiesta, I meant that I had fitted this make of bulb to my Fiesta as well.)
If you have candles and want to stay legal, give these ago, they do not perform miracles, but you will not want to go back to standard Halogen bulbs.

By Matt B
I contemplated upgrading to HID lights on my 2008 Passat CC after having made the decision to buy a car without Xenon lights, having the luxury of Xenon for the previous 3 years. Stupid idea! Going back to basic halogen lights was a mistake with the amount of night driving I do. I read both good and bad reports about HID but I couldn't find a reliable provider at a realistic price. I opted for the Philip X-treme Vision H7 as a halfway house. They are clearly no comparison to full Xenon, don't get me wrong. However, they are a great compromise as they do live up to their name, almost! The increase in brightness is huge, around 80% if I'm honest. The biggest benefit is the whiteness of the light compared to the dull yellowish glow of standard bulbs which make driving at night so much more pleasant. Distance visibility is increased but not to the extent quoted - I'd say 60%. I would recommend these bulbs to others and I will also purchase another set myself for full beams, for those nervous drives down country roads.

I have used other increased night vision bulbs previously but only a marginal increase, these Extreme vision made a good difference on my Volvo XC, also bought a set for the Mini, where I did notice the difference at least 80 - 100% improvement well worth the extra few ££.

Replaced the standard bulbs on my S40 and these definitely offer more light. As with other reviews I don't think they give 100% more light, but in my opinion are worth the extra... Read more
