Looking to replace headlamp bulbs in Daughters Mini as existing ones are very yellow looking:






I’m most likely overthinking but would appreciate a recommendation.

TIA. 👍
 
I have had several sets of various makes over the years. The extra light thrown on the road will be governed by the quality of the reflectors. They worked well in my Jag, but were of little use in the CLK. Eventually I did a projector unit upgrade into my existing light units. Another issue with them is working life is shorter than a conventional halogen bulb.

Thank you. Any particular recommendation?
 
For what it’s worth I’m thinking the Bosch from Amazon based solely on the reviews 🤷‍♂️
 
I used to buy the 100w rally ones but they blew quickly.
 
I recommend Osram Nightbreaker Silver.

Not Plus, not Unlimited, not Laser, but Silver.

Good compromise between bright white light and longevity.

The ultra-bright ones tend to not last very long.
 
I’ve used those ultra power white ones and was pleased with them

Ty MJ. 👌
 
I used Nightbreakers in the vans and found them pretty decent. They didn't last as long as 'normal' bulbs, but then I probably did far more night driving than average.
