    White halogen bulbs

    I am not really impressed with the regular H11 headlight bulbs and would like to get a little bit brighter and whiter light. Perhaps I am too much used to my Xenons on my 9-5 so regular halogen is a bit of a step back.

    Any recommendations for brand and/or type bulbs? I don't want the ricer "hey, look at me with my fake Xenons!" look or annoy oncoming drivers with glare.

    for Saab lamps is very important to keep the resistance values of the OEM lamps as the voltage is auto monitoring and controlled by the BCM.
    otherwise issues.

    I bought the Philips CrystalVision Ultra bulbs and installed earlier this week. Wow, what a difference! They are very close in light output and color to my 2005 9-5 with the Xenon lights. I can now actually see at night and the white color is so much nicer. Great price of $30.
