Replacement Headlight Bulbs

Post by Trebor »

Hi all,

Am new to the forum and this is my first post.

I was just wondering if anyone could recommend any replacement headlight bulbs? My current versions are what came with the car when I bought it (used) so I can only assume they are manufacturers oem, the thing is they seem a bit lacking in their brightness.

Would like to hear views of anyone who has replaced the same in their scirocco, I don't want to break the bank in terms of cost but it would be good if I can upgrade the current bulbs to something better, especially now its winter and I'm doing more driving in darkness.

My car is a 2013 plate TDI Bluemotion.

Many thanks,

Rob :yes:

Osram Nightbreakers Unlimited. H7 fitment, assuming they are halogen.

Also check that your lights are correctly aligned as that has a significant impact on performance.
