Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Upgrade Your Vehicle's Lighting with Philips 42302C1 D3S Standard Xenon HID Headlight Bulb, 1 Pack by Eric Smalley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Authentic and great!

I ordered these bulbs (2 pack) as a replacement bulb for my 2006 Lincoln Navigator with OEM HID headlights. One light turned purple and eventually went out so I ordered two of these just in case the Philips bulb didn't fit. After receiving the package, I checked their authenticity on the Philips website and they are both genuine. I went ahead and installed them with no problems, they fitted perfectly. My truck is originally fitted with Osram Xenarec 4200k bulbs, these Philips bulbs have a more white/yellowish (but still white) hue while the OEM bulb was a purer white with a slight tint of very light purple (see photo , Osram left , Philips right). You can see the comparison in the image below. But I am satisfied and ordered two of them because I knew that the other Osram lamp would soon run out. With both Philips bulbs the car looks great, no inconsistencies. I bought these because of the questionable reviews from people with cheap headlights about cheap asian headlights. I truly believe that you buy right the first time so you don't have to replace them again in the near future. It took 20 minutes to replace both bulbs.
