Default Ebay. I just did this. Paid $64 for a set of D2S 4300K Phillips bulbs.
Mine were dim as hell, I'm anxious to see if it makes a difference.

Default I got what was supposedly 5000k Phillips bulbs
not sure my headlights got any brighter over the 5 year old bulbs they replaced.

But I do need to reset the leveler via VAG-COM. Hoping that fixes it.

Otherwise, I'll try new 4300k bulbs. Worst case, the ballast is going.

Anyone ever experience oil leaking from the turbo halves but not blowing through to the IC?
