hai guys, my headlamp bulb one size fused. looking to buy online a replacement, then feel like going down rabbit-hole of choices - halogen, led, hid, h4, h7 etc etc.

i thought wah, ok change LED is better and brighter, but then also read about possible illegal or blind ppl. so nevermind, I think I will stick with the original halogen.

but look on shopee, there's wide range of pricing, from rm6 per bulb (labelled Osram brand), rm20ish (also Osram or bosch), then rm90+ for high-end Osram Night breaker etc etc.

Too many choices, I think I will stick of standard bulb now. Should I go for the cheapest rm6 Osram or mid-range osram/bosch? what is the difference.

original H4 used few years
switch to Novsight green fake XHP50 - burn 1 each year, used 2 years+
now use back original H4 from kilang

LED is good, just really need to spend on premium and branded

headlamp level need to readjust, because the lamp cutoff is determined by the bulb design, not the housing like projector
For LED, need to lower the cutoff than standard H4

Nightbreaker use blue coating to make certain spots look brighter than surrounding

I will just use normal H4, no color on the glass

tq tq, I guess I will just get the cheapest version for now and see how long it last and hows the brightness.

in case you didn't know, don't touch the bulb glass with bare hands when installing, felt or cotton glove ok
H4 bulb cannot have anything oily greasy on there

if you see any smudge, clean it with alcohol other wise the bulb life will shorten, or burn immediately

oh. tq for the heads up!
