They were new in March-the nearside dipbeam went on the way home from work this morning -Ive had cheap chinese ebay tack outlive that.


Im trying some nightbreakers next -if they fail quickly too, Ill go back to the original citroen bulbs-Im not playing this game!

Halfords do heavy duty headlamp bulbs £14.99 for a twin pack, they do the job ok.

I put in Night Breakers just after I bought mine new. They bit the dust after 18 months within a week of each other. I have my lights set to turn on whenever the car is running day or night. I'm on my second set now and they are great. They make the originals look a bit pale.

i fitted blue tinted ones as my side lights, now they have both gone, tried replacing with originals and still nothing. Checked fuse and thats ok. Awaiting my 3rd service for them to sort out. Any ideas guys?

Forget about xenon bulbs unless you dont mind replacing them on regular basis, like me !

I have just bought the above off Ebay and are waiting for them to be delivered, i believe they are the latest version of nightbreakers, i have always used halfords extreme brilliance i think they are called and do recommend them but i thought i would have a change as one of mine blew the other day.

After doing a bit of reading on the web it seems that these fancy bulbs dont last as long as a bog standard halogen bulb but if i get about 18 months out of them i will be happy as a much prefer a well lit road ahead of me.

Changed mine just recently on advice from Merlecollins and others who answered the call (thanks again) to night breaker plus from ebay.
I have found them most excellent, got some for my 807 also. I hope they last.
Only thing i found with all the rain we've had, i noticed it is much harder to spot standing water and big puddles in dark and rain than previous standard bulbs. Could just be me not looking properly before!

on my last car (ford galaxy) i fitted some 100w bulbs which i brought from ebay i think they were around £8 a pair. they are ileagle for road use but i never had a problem and the gave a nice bright light. i think i will be fitting a set to the berly soon.

Possibly not absolutley neccessary,but advisable, would be a relay....
