Xenons4U HID bulb

It’s hard to know where to start with these Xenons4U lamps, which are also available through Amazon

Best price: £17.50 Beam: 107

It’s hard to know where to start with these Xenons4U lamps, which are also available through Amazon. Build quality was poor, with crucial alignment marks missing from the base plate. And our first impressions weren’t misplaced, as the beam colour resembled an ugly bruise, with yellow and blue areas. The beam was also focused too close to the car, giving light levels similar to those of a halogen bulb at the critical points further down the road. Simply not good enough for a modern HID bulb, even at £34.99 a pair.
