Hi there i have just bought a 2007 CRV CDTI. I thought as it had headlight washers that the the lights were HID only to find out this was not the case. Can anyone reccomend bulbs for the front which have a good white light similar to HID and better performance than the standard bulbs which are fitted.

These are what you want

I have them & they are the best 'white light' bulbs I've ever used.

Thanks sounds great. Do the bulbs have a blue outer coating or just the tips? My Honda CRV Drivers manual states that i need HB3 type for high beam H1 for low beam, H11 for fog lights and i think the side lights are a 501 type but i dont know whether it needs canbus style or not. How do the bulbs youve mentioned compare to the Osram nightbreaker plus and the Ring Xenon max bulbs. Any chance of seeing photos of the lights in action?

Thanks, what a difference. Did you replace all front bulbs? Do the new bulbs give you a greater field of view in the dark compared to your old ones?

The car in the pictures isn't mine. But yes I had low, high & side lights changed.

View is better than the urine colour of standard bulbs!
