Default ANY OTHER HALOGEN OWNERS LOOKING FOR XENON LOOK-ALIKE BULBS?

Trying to see how much interest there is for replacement bulbs. Stock is 55watt in high,low and fog. I think I can get 50w, 70w or 100w at about $21, $22, or $23 plus shipping. Email me if interested.<p>2000 1.8t QM

Default I did some research on this.

And I found out I could buy real xenons for an expensive price. I would be interested but I am afraid that the look a likes would look cheesy. I have a 00 A4 1.8. If you have any input let me know.

Default I have Eurolites, and I've seen Jahns...

Both look pretty good. There is a little catch to the fake Xenon game. If you go with a high wattage bulb, 75W+, they tend to burn out quickly. In fact you'll notice there is no warranty on them. If you go with a 55W bulb, they will last. I think the Eurolites look good, but I don't think they provide any more light than the stock halogens, probably a little less actually. They definitely look whiter than halogens, but they don't look anything like the Audi Xenons. They actuallu look like the Acura Xenons in the TL. There is no blueness when you look at them from an angle like you see in the Audi Xenons. If you decide to try the Eurolites, order then from speedlife Inc in Florida. They have the best price I've seen. Good luck.

Default Oh, and let me add that all bulbs, fog, low and high beams are H7 size bulbs.
