·Hi All,
I'm currently considering ways to improve the headlights on my Evo6, as I'm fed up with not being able to see anything. My previous motor was an Audi TT with Xenon Gas Discharge headlamps, and I just can't get to grips with how poor the Evo is in comparison.
Currently, I'm considering the following options:
1) Go for some 60W/55 'Xenon' bulbs, that supposedly increase light output by about 30%. I've heard that the Philips ones are the best, and this seems to be back up by a recent AutoExpress test.
2) Go for some 100W/90s that my local Rally prep outfit uses. These bulbs are fully E-marked, so theoretically legal. My only questions here are whether the loom can handle the extra current drain, and whether the reflectors will be stand up to the extra heat. Also, there is the issue of legality.
3) Go for some driving lamps from Ralliart, along with the 60W/55 Xenon bulbs. More expensive, but would it be worth it?
I'd like to hear peoples opinions.
Thanks,
Andy.
