Yes, I have, big difference. Just you must check if the ones you buy will lock inplace corectly. One set i bought was too loose. Light is like from hid - just brighter.

And they also come with the added possible bonus of those driving towards you at night will often helpfully swerve out of the way into trees, hedges, ditches etc to help you get to your destination without hindrance.

On a serious note I have used the Osram Nightbreaker and Philips Extreme Vision bulbs and found them to be a bit brighter and offer better visibility, but do sometimes get oncoming traffic flashing thinking I have my high beams on. The LED upgrade looks interesting but I can only assume it will be seriously blinding to traffic when on hilly undulating roads. Tom

checked with light meter on wall, as well with second car and you re wrong, doesnt blind nobody. New mercedes blinds more. Take a look for any fiat ducato - this is blinding.
