Diamond Visions are a truer white color. Harder to find though as they're not sold locally, so you'll have to find an online importer.

I'll say it again, diamond visions look good but they run too hot. If you have Lamin-x on your fogs (if you don't you should, if you don't want to replace them every year) it will burn it. That's why I wouldn't recommend them.

2009 W204 C200K AMG Package
Sorry to bump an old thread. But its very hard to find Diamond visions without looking into Chinese vendors that provide them without retail package.

Is there any new bulbs that might be close in color to the stock Bi-xenons?

Try candlepower.com . Bought Osram Rally #64217 H7 65watt bulbs from them. $36/pr incl shipping. oem H7,s are 1400 lumens. The Osram's are 2100 lumens, These bulbs are not white but are 50% brighter than stock. The website states they are a direct import from Europe--not elsewhere. Light from this bulb is 3200K. (Kelvin temp scale.) Am very pleased with no problems.

Sorry no pics. They look like the oem H7s--but brighter--about 50%.
