Yup...when I changed the bulbs, noticed it was from Philips & Osram. Weird but anyway I'm on the Philips Xtreme Power +80.

the best halogen bulb(s) in the world nowaday is either the Osram NB or the Philips X-treme Power.

Replacing the OE bulbs, i dont think we can go wrong with either of them.

80%, 90% + than OE, small different betwwen them, but both are sure better than OE.

only that Osram NB are much cheaper than X-treme Power by more than 10%.

btw, i got 2 cars using the Philips. why? just brand preference. both bulbs should be very good.

since the stock bulbs are either O or P, are they still consider OEM? i find the current bulbs are already quite bright. NB or X-Power will be 80% or 90% brighter?

the normal P /O bulb is consider OEN........ anything else wjth special name e.g NB/Xp is an upgrade.....

though the normal OEM is already bright but the upgrade really give a different . the illumination is very much better.....

i have been using NB for 1/2 a year and the low beam is sufficient if correctly adjusted
