Philips Extreme +80% are superb, and fully legal. The Osram Nightbreakers are very good too. Be aware that so-called 'rally' bulbs are often too high a wattage making them illegal, and the extra current draw can overheat the wiring or blow fuses. In tests the Philips Extremes usually outperform the 100W rally ones anyway.

that's the thing, once the original's comes off, the rest dont come nowhere near better. They start to chip more & more, along with them geting very greasey too after rainfull. When i drive in the rain my vipers cant clean the windscreen properly. Its one of them things changed the viper blades & giving the screen a good clear too but after abit same crap

eBay is a good place for bulbs, or Powerbulbs. The Philips are reputedly better made with crystal glass and a well positioned element giving a perfect focus of the beam. Although quoted as '+90%', the Osram Nightbreakers never do quite as well as the Extremes, but are still a very good bulb.

Clean the screen with white vinegar, and dry it off with scrunched up newspaper.
