Default Group Buy! Stage 2 Xenon Bulbs from SPP

Group buy is confirmed for the Osram Xenarc 5300K bulbs. These bulbs will fit all cars that have Xenons with a D2S bulb (all Audi models but the new A4). Audi OEM Xenons are 4300K, see the pics below for a comparison.

We need 10 people to order the bulbs to get them for $220 per pair. The price includes shipping to continental USA.

The group buy is good through the month of December. Please contact Supreme Power Parts directly to place orders.

Phone: (714)632-1951

Default OSRAM, of course, has a name, but ...

220$ per pair is very expensive!

Korean made bulbs cost 90$ per pair (5400K) or 100$ (6000K).
Its work very good with all ballasts (Hella, Osram, Philips).

Same effect as shown on the pictures, if compare 5400K and 6000K.

Moreover, I used 7000K - 5400K looks like yellow candle.

Default Is Heat a Problem?

I never had much luck in the incandescent days with higher wattage bulbs as they seemed to overheat and damage the connectors, etc.

Same with xenons? Does a 7000 run cool enough to be OK and last a while?

The xenons in our 540 are quite a bit brighter than our A8 - both are stock
