What headlight lamps

Hi guys

Now the dark nights are here I'm wondering what lamps are best to fit to the D3

The existing ones are a bit dim!

Cheers

Joe

GS as per your sig would be halogens but they coud ave been changed to xenons as easy to do. For halogens something like Philips x-treme +100% H7s for both low & high beam (4 bulbs in total). If xenons (fish bowl lens) then set of replacement d2s (I think) bulbs & the +100% H7s for the high beams. Thumbs Up

Give Steve (boringodgit) a shout/pm as he had a very good offer on Nightbreakers recently, I just thought of Philips as that's what I put in last year. Thumbs Up
