    Default What headlight bulb should I get?

    I've got a driver's side low beam out and I believe stock bulb is an H7. Any recommendations of what to get or not get?

    I bought some Sylvania super brights or some such for the OTM. They were indeed brighter and kind of nice. Trouble is they burned out in about a year (both of them, within 6 weeks of each other). The parts dude said "yup, they do that...." OEMs lasted 5 years. Not worth the trade-off to me.

    I went with OEM for longevity. Fiddy bucks for a pair.
