Looking at replacement HID bulbs (D2S)
My HID's are dimming a bit after 8 years. I am looking to replace these asap. These are for my 2008 Evo X with SSS.
I have been looking around and these are the choices I narrowed it down to...
Osram Xenarc 66240. These are like the stock OEM bulbs. 4300K or so.
Osram Xenarc 66240 CBI. Up to 5500K. I drive in all types of weather. Clear, rain, or snow. I'm worried about being a whiter bulb, driving in these condition might not be as good as the 4300k bulbs. I do like the whiter color.
Osram Xenarc 66240 Nightbreaker. I heard these are very bright. Others say they are not DOT approved in the US. Also, being brighter, I wonder the life of the bulbs would be shorten.
Philips 85122 (4300k). I think these are similar to the Osram Xenarc, but a tiny bit whiter.
Philips 85122XV C1 Xtreme Vision Another brighter bulb with more white.
Sylvania D2S from local parts store. 4300k but more expensive. $99 a bulb.
Anyone use any one of these HID bulbs? Pros/Cons?
Thanks,
