    Basta same bulb type, magpi-fit siya. Yup, mas maliwanag sila. Kita mo naman ang illustration sa likod ng Osram packaging above.

    I see, I don't usually trust self-claimed improvements kasi that's why I asked your opinions. Thanks btw

    If gusto mo ng testimonial, you can backread this thread. Philips XV user ako. H4 bulb type in my previous car. Tapos ka-o-order ko lang now ng Philips XV, HB3 type naman for the new car.

    *scaryghost: Night and day ang difference when using retrofit projector lights in comparison sa halogen light, basta tama yung pag retrofit (use FXR or A3 lenses if you can)

    Compared to standard halogen:

    Philips XV gives 100% more light.
    Osram NBU gives 110% more light.
    HID gives 200% to 300% more light.

    So yes, malaki ang difference sa light output.

    HID glare can be particularly annoying for other road users. As such, they should always be aimed towards the ground.

    No need to wear gloves. Basta lang wag mong hawakan yung bulb mismo, always hold it by the base.

    This is because the oils on your hand can get on the bulb, causing it to heat up during use, then poof, premature death.

    Never ever hold the bulb with your bare hands/fingers.

    Do not worry too much. If accidentally mahawakan ang glass part ng halogen bulb, just wipe it with soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol until your fingerprint is gone. Next, wipe with soft dry cloth. That's it.
