I got some PIAA ice white bulbs from the local motorbits, paid £24 for them which was a bit much but I was desperate for them so had to pay over the odds. They are very bright on dark roads. Loads better than standard ones.

Maxxed_Ross has a spectacular aura aboutMaxxed_Ross has a spectacular aura about
I've been using Halfords Extreme bulbs in the Defender for a while now and had them in the Astra before I did the Xenon conversion... for the price they are really impressive

I tried Osram Nightbreakers... and even though they were alot more expensive they didn't seem any better - so went back to the Halfords ones again lol


You need H7 for the ZS, H7R is only used for HIDs as the bulb is a bit shorter and apparently it gives a more "legal" beam pattern in the MK1 ZS
