im going to try changing out the bulbs on my euro ellipsoids to try and get some better lighting. thinking about the sylvania h1s but is anything running the 100 watts or higher from some of the other brands?

lost the thread but i went with the rebuild for my tranny, thanks for everyones advice. it was $1700 and he had to tear it apart twice. i now have 3 months to pay for it :) comes with a warranty too but i forogt what it was probably a year or so.

agree. or the philips vision plus 50%, but don't know if they are available over there.

but please DON'T USE ANY 100W BULBS!!! the plastik reflector of the hella ellipsoid won't tolerate the heat for a long time

Sylvania silverstars are short-lived, blue tinted trash.

I like the Narva H1 Rangepower +30s I bought from Daniel Stern. A whiter light than the crappy US spec halogens. He also has 50s if you want.

FYI the 30 and 50 is not wattage but rather some odd quantity of whiter light.
