What HID bulbs do you use to replace old blown lights?Anyone use D4S Philips X-Treme Vision Gen2 HID? Feel free to mention other bulbs

 

I doubt anyone on here has ever tested several different bulbs in an experimental fasion.
So everyone will say "xxx is the best" "yy is the king" without ever tried anything else on the market.

Buy whatever floats your boat.

 

I was hoping you would mention a bulb lol. I'm open to hearing anything suggestions

 

Based on what Ive seen here in the forums

1. Garax 6k
2. Phillips Xtreme Ultinon 6.2k/6.7k
3. Osram CBI/CBB

 

Osram Night Breaker Laser HID

 

I can vouch for these and anything from Osram as they are top notch and very reliable. I have the night breaker laser in pure white I think 6.7k in my GS and just amazing at night, from lumens to coverage to just seeing things I couldn't see in the OEM bulbs. Philips are good too as I had them in previous vehicles but Osram to me are high quality and will light up your world (pund intended)

Only down side is they won't match the DRL night swoosh lights as Lexus dims these and look like they drop to 3400K kelvin output at night when you have your main HIDs on. Stupid of them and wish there was a way to upgrade these to match too.

 

Which HID bulbs other than OEM match the DRLs (and are brighter)?

 

I did my research and these are the top for lumens. Worth the price. Such an upgrade.

 

The Osram Night Breaker is definitely worth every penny. I put a pair in my 3rd gen, which has one of the worst light output/beam patterns. These night breaker made a huge difference. I can actually see the road. lol

 

Thinking about change OEM bulbs to OSRAM COOL BLUE BOOST 7000K

 

Thank you very much i appreciate all inputs.

 

I see you've never driven a 1st gen Lincoln Mark Viii.

 

Can you provide a direct link to the exact ones?

I found these, the closest based on your description:
