used these in all my cars...awesome, never seen anything brighter (even most HID!)

The 'plasma spark' looks just like a HID, the 'super plasma' 60/55W just the best legal ever. Never used the 80/80W... yet.

Pix, would be great to see?? What one have you decided you liked best? Looks like the Super plasma or Plasma spark are the ones to go with.

Plasma Spark Blue technology with high eficiency halogen bulb
Emits a white-blue light similar to the look of HID (Xenon) lamps
The H4 and H7 designs have a blue coloured top coat which reflects a brilliant blue colour even when the bulb is off
H4 P43T 60/55 = 110/100W

Super Plasma bulbs feature a unique design with two different colours from one bulb
Low beam is a similar colour to H.I.D. technology
High beam is a white light with a colour arranged to reach as far as possible
H4 P43T 60/55=130/110W

although the same input wattages, the 'visual' output wattage (what a normal bulb would have to be rated at to compare) the 'super plasma' are brighter, high beam is a 'white' light as compared to the 'HID look' high beam of the plasma spark

Ive used many different uprated bulbs, but just get these, you wont be dissapointed. My dad has a land rover discovery (SERIOUSLY bad OE headlights) and chucked a set of the xtreme whites in... hasnt even bothered buying driving lights now! I just find the HID blueish low beam is nice for detailing and longer night drives where the white can be tiring. Your choice!!
