Best Halogen Bulb?

My dad just picked up a 2011 ML350 for my mom and obviously Mercedes doesn't believe in putting Xenons in their cars as standard. Lighting basically sucks on the car. I don't want to put HID kit in it and something happens out of no where and my rents are stuck....I hear Philips have good bulbs but maybe other members have better suggestions?

Aren't HID kits are like 35 bucks now, cheaper than Halogens? You could get them two pairs!

Buy this:

I have two in my fog lights and they are WORLDS better than a standard H7 and they won't cause any errors. I bought each one for $8 off of ebay.
