lighting....

Just a random question for the masses here....

what lights or bulbs do you usually use in your ZS or other cars?

I only ask as I have always thought the headlight on dipped beam to be utterly useless on the ZS, and as some-one posted a 10% discount on power bulbs over on xpf (MGZS10 the code is iirc) i treated myself to a set of the new phillips Xtreme Vision jobbers.

I have not gone out in the dark to test them yet, but i can say they are a huge difference over the old lights when i got down to the lamp height and compared them.

However what I am not sure is that whether they would have been better than just getting some new bog standard bosche ones, as the old ones are in pretty poor shape tbh....

So would you spend the extra ?20 on a set of high spec bulbs, or just bung in cheap ones....

I was wary of the HID situation due to the possible tightening of MOT rules hence why i went for some EU legal bright ones...
