GT bumper is at sharper angle and sleeker compared to THP which is more rounded and has a bigger grille section. I personally prefer the GT over THP.

ooo... I didn't know that... can't tell the difference really...
Its not what you have...... its how you use it!!

Hi,

Just wondering. Is the Philips bulb much brighter than the original 308 ones ? What is the damage ? & where can I get it from ?
Thanks a lot !

Bro,

From my reading, Diamond Vision is only good for show (i.e. nice HID look) but no brightness and performance not so good (only compareble with OEM bulb).

For performance, try look for Philips Xtreme Power (yellowish) or Osram Night Breaker (slightly whiter).

But its all on preferences, looks or performance..and if your lion only roam in the city, might worth go for looks (since there is street light all around)

2 cent

I have used the Diamond Vision on my previous car and what FEMlab is saying is very true. Its not bright enough. Don't judge the packaging. It only looks white but doesn't give you the brightness. The original bulbs are still better in terms of brightness.
Its not what you have...... its how you use it!!

yeah. fem & alan is right. it will not be as bright. also part of the reason why i have not changed my hi-beams to diamond vision. but i like it becoz it gives a hue of bluish white. thinking of changing the fogs to as well, but leave the hi-beams stock.

anyway, just to show u how it looks like...

As I said, if your lion only roam in the city..why not used this Diamond vision..

loon3y, for your headlight and foglight, try google for Osram Night Breaker (should be good stuff and whitish in colour_good peformance bulb)..Philips Xtreme is still the best in many review...but yellowish in colour
