Hi all,

Just had one of my PIAA bulbs blow so i am looking for a replacement.

Are the replacement PIAA bulbs 130Watt H3's or something else???

are they £20 each?

or has anyone found a replacement that is better.

cheers.

I think they are H3, and can be had at good car shops in 55, 100, and 130Watt. I don't know if it's worth the £20 for genuine PIAA bulbs, I think the 130's are about £6 each.

BTW:I've been using 100w bulbs from a French supermarket, and they're only £2 each, with Philips Vision Plus at £15.

The PIAAs are £20 each, but word has it that the £4 130w 'halfords' do the same job. My next ones will be the PIAA H3 extreme whites for the driving lights - got them in the headlights and they're the dogs

Std PIAA bulbs in the driving lights are H3 120w
