I have used Halfords +90 since 2008 changing them from car to car but had to buy 2 H11 for my 2011 model.

I changed both H7 dip beam bulbs on my 2007 XS to Halfords +90% this morning as, like you, I found their deal quite good. Changing is simple with the intructions in the manual easily followed...much easier than I expected. A spanner / socket set is required. Changed mine in 15 minutes including drinking a coffee.

As posted in another thread, I replaced the H7 high beam globes with a set of Philips +100% but couldn't see much of a difference. With the wisdom of hindsight, I should have replaced the low beam (dipped) globes as this is where I struggle with night driving on the current lights.

Thanks for your prompt response guy's - I think I will buy from Halfords on a 2 for 1 offer notwithstanding Ace Components are offering 2 Osram Nightbreaker plus lights for about £15 (being based in Guernsey gives me a slightly uneasy feeling)

Tenet, enjoy your fishing! I hope to be on the Ettrick in late October, if there is any water....... JT Upgraded to an ex demo, 7 mth old, Rimini Red/Ebony Napoli Auto HSE on 28th Jan 2011, added roof rails, mudflaps and side strips.

Having replaced my high beam globes about a year ago and getting a reasonable improvement, I decided to fork out the $80 (40pound?) and purchased the low beam globes. Both sets are the Phillips +100% variety.
