Bixenon Headlights Replacement Choices

Hi all,

One of my bulbs burned out and has turned red/pink today. Looking to replace.

Stuck between these two but seems like the CBB's are the newest top of the line and match that amazing crispness + tint of blue.

Comparison video to Phillips.

Thoughts guys? Any experience in switching your guys bulbs? Didn't want to just replaced the burned one because then the other wouldn't match due to age. (i don't think they've ever been replaced since build in 2010).

BTW: This video is for D2S but yes the link is for D1S and ofcourse i'd be purchasing D1Ss.

Can't speak for the philips, but the osrams are top notch and definitely worth the money

I put these in my M. From the functional standpoint, as this review states, they are top-notch, giving off a very even and bright light. Unlike what the review suggests though, I found no blue tint whatsoever in the output. I would call it "pure white."

those are the night breakers that’s why, the cbb’s are specifically cool blue.

Appreciate the input so far.

Going to go with the CBB.

Low beam cut out completely today and the fog below it has as well. I’m assuming it’s related as generally when one bulbs out somewhere some other one always magically goes, which has happened before with like parking lamps/fogs.
