seeing as its getting darker earlier, and me not liking night driving - anyone recommend some decent bulbs that actually work good, without resorting to a xenon kit ?

Osram Silverstar are better and cheaper.

I doubt this is the address H-M3 is talking about but order from www.powerbulbs.co.uk and you get free sidelight bulbs too....

Ive never been happy with these osram coz they kept blowing out on me! but since ive had the Phillips ones theve lasted very long and still going. plus you get free side lights with them.
