Osram's or the Phillips Vision + are very good value for money - get them online cheap.

PIAA make good bulbs but WAY over priced IMHO.

make sure the bulbs are xenon gas type [not halogen] and the same wattage as original
"general electric megalight plus 60" are reasonable and available from andy batters;email-

Is it possible to remove the glass from the headlight to give it a clean inside? Used to do this periodically with various vaux's and it improved the intensity of the beam.

to be honest even changing the bulbs made only a little difference, although it is worth doing as a start
i think the original design of the reflector and beam spread is pretty pants
go for a hid conversion if you want proper lights.

the twin round light morrette conversion -is that any better anyone???

Anyone got any experience of the Subaru PIAA driving light replacements for the stock fog lamps? Are they any good or is there a better (and cheaper) alternative?

Thanks.

Have heard to many horror stories about the PIAA bulbs blowing very prematurely and for the money... no thanks. Thier wipers on the other hand are well worth the cost..!
