Review on πŸ”¦ Philips 9003 X-tremeVision Upgrade Headlight Bulb with Increased Vision by up to 100%, 2 Pack, 9003XVB2 by William Chavez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

You're trading lamp life for brightness, but it's worth it!

I bought these Philips bulbs on the recommendation of the auto headlight forum. These lamps are of good quality. They are made in Poland and are significantly brighter than the standard Korean halogen bulbs they have replaced. I see many reviews complaining about the short lamp life but that is the nature of brighter lamps. Bright light bulbs have a shorter lifespan. If you buy a regular or long life bulb it will last a long time, maybe years, but will be much dimmer and won't work as well as these Philips X-tremevison bulbs. I installed these bulbs in a classic car that doesn't drive much at night and the headlight assembly is easily accessible so I'm not overly concerned about durability. I'll happily change the bulb more often if the return is safer night driving. So if you're willing to replace them more often than regular bulbs, get Philips X-tremevision bulbs, position them correctly so you don't blind other drivers and enjoy safer, well-lit roads at night!

Pros
  • High quality finish
Cons
  • Requires socket
