I'm thinking about getting these to replace the woefully yellow standard globes. Any one ever used Philips H4 Extreme???

I have the Narva 120 plus globes and they are definitely brighter than stock side by side.
Very happy with the light output.
Although some have had globes not lasting a year, others are 3 years old and are still going.
I would recommend these to anyone from MY experience only.

Probably off topic and a whole lot dearer...

They are incredible.

How do u find the LEDs mate

too bright, I had to adjust the spotlights so as to not blind the oncoming traffic.

I have HID in my standard GU headlamps.
Brilliant, but illegal. Never been flashed so i will keep on using them.

I've had my GU headlights HID'd for many years now and the ideal thing was to upgrade the headlights to the series 3. They don't throw the light all about like the earlier series lending themselves better suited to the HID's and being nicer to oncoming traffic.

Yep, I tried these Extreme Vision bulbs in my road going VW Touareg, paid around $80 a pair, they are ok bulbs (as far as brightness), but one blew after just 2 months and would not be replaced under warranty.......shop not interested and no response from phillips.....which is crap......so i was left with one expensive bulb which I couldn't match as a single......waste of money.........in the trash can.......back to normal bulbs. Also there are Chinese copies of these, labelling, packaging, everything so watch out. I got mine from autobarn.
