Review on Wagner D2S HID/HIR Capsule Headlight Bulb: Enhanced Visibility & Durability for Perfect Illumination by Reid Rickerson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Is no longer exclusively produced in Germany. The Wagner lamps I bought were renamed Korean lamps.

Be careful. Wagner D2S lamps have generally always been made in Germany (appear to be rebranded Philips lamps). I recently ordered a few and received Wagners made in Korea. They were real and all, but they were re-stamped Korean lamps, so I wasn't very happy. Now it says "Made in Germany or Korea" on the boxes. Well the bulbs were definitely made in Korea and I could tell right away that they were the same as the cheaper name brand bulbs you can get for $25 for the whole pair! I'm sorry, Wagner, but they're back. If they were still made in Germany I would have kept them as they would still be a good price but now that they have been rebranded and are cheap in Korea they were poor value, a rip off actually. those made in Korea, just note that similar lamps can be bought for less. If you buy the German ones you get a good price and a good bulb.
