Why buy the Philips Xenon X-tremeVision gen2 HID globes?

With the Xenon X-tremeVision gen2 range, Philips gives you the opportunity to experience a truly enhanced lighting performance from your vehicles headlights.

Thanks to Philips’ state-of-the-art engineering and impeccable design standards, the X-tremeVision is capable of producing up to 150% more light on the road. This massively increased projection enables a more comfortable, safer driving experience as potential hazards and obstacles become illuminated much sooner than with a standard globe.

The X-tremeVision gen 2’s precise assembly and arc-bending technology also allows for a perfect light beam projection and shape, that illuminates farther and sheds extra light on the road’s periphery.

Along with a tremendous light output, the X-tremeVision gen2 accomplishes an optimum light colour temperature of 4800K for a crisp white light, similar in colour to daylight. So you can enjoy the vast styling improvements of a white light while also benefiting from an optically sensitive, comfortable colour.

In terms of design, Philips have used only the highest quality materials and components. The use of strong UV-Quartz glass gives the globe a strikingly high resilience and durability, enhancing resistance to strong vibrations and extremes in temperature. Philips’ application of an additional layer also protects from harmful ultraviolet radiation, all of which means you can enjoy your globes for longer.

The Philips Xenon X-tremeVision range of globes is fully road legal and adhere meticulously to ECE standards.

Great light ...

4/5

Main beam spread is marginally improved over the standard bulbs, but dipped is significantly better. Therefore, an important safety upgrade. One problem though: the shape of the backplate was not exactly the same as the OE, and had to be filed to fit fully into the headlamp.

The XV2 are better than stock without downsides. It’s definitely brighter in all aspects, width and distance. Also, they’re visibility whiter without being blue so they penetrate better in adverse weather conditions giving better visibility.

Low beam is a good bit better on range the light is a warmer. But an easy trade off for better overall safety than the blue standard bulbs my car had.

Have always used powerbulbs for my replacement bulbs. I trust this site to deliver original bulbs. Because its delivered free, It took about 2 weeks to arrive and as i was not home at the time, delivery man didnt inform me and just left it at my gate , Here in malaysia, parcels left lying around gets stolen easily.. and these bulbs are not cheap either..

5/5

These bulbs are a huge improvement over the standard OEM bulbs. Definitely brighter and a lot more distance, my OEM bulbs almost seemed halogen like. I have adaptive headlights in my car and I can now see the lights moving left and right, I couldn’t see that before, at one point I thought I didn’t have adaptive headlights. Now they are great. These bulbs don’t seem to offer much whiter light than the OEM bulbs even though I was expecting an improvement, I suppose the difference between OEM at 4200k and these at 4800k is to be honest only 600k difference. I would say it probably is just that hence a slightly whiter light. If you want significantly brighter lights with a some/minor visual improvement on colour then these are for you. PowerBulbs are my go to for car bulbs though, they offer fast delivery, quality genuine bulbs at an amazing price.

Just put these into my 2011 s3 as original ones were pretty bad. Came quickly and were a good price. Can’t wait for them to burn in and see how good they really are. If u drive a lot at night u need the best u can buy. And not fakes like a lot of places that u buy from.

I bought these as a pair when the ballast on my Mk7 GTI failed, I had factory fitted originals in at the time. These are brighter and have a crisper output due to the higher Kelvin compared to OEM bulbs previously installed, not to mention they are half the price of the VW ones! Highly recommend this product

Bought these as an upgrade to the standard installed on my A4, certainly whiter than the standard and would say they are a bit brighter than the old ones. Good price with the 20% off and couldn’t find them anywhere else cheaper. These are genuine Phillips bulbs unlike the knock offs you can get on eBay. Overall very satisfied. Had a mate fit them who is a mechanic, not the easiest job by the sound of it!

Purchased to upgrade my Audi S4 as the standard bulbs were dull, instant change as soon as these bulbs were installed, long white beam length and can spot hazards in the road much further. Would highly recommend.

5/5

Having purchased a Golf MK7 GTI recently the only disappointment with the car was the performance of the BI-Xenon headlights. The standard D3S bulbs are very average at best. After reviewing my options, the Philips X-treme Vision gen 2 was the preferred choice. After 4hours of fitting. The difference was immediate. Greater range, wider spread and far brighter (White Light). I was warned about copies of this bulb so I choose to purchase through an authorised dealer ( powerbulbs) and at the time they where offering 20% discount. Now a very happy GTI driver.

After my bulb decided to finally go i thought I might as well get something better. Had the choice between this and osram and found the numbers on these stood up better and wow they don't disappoint definite improvement that will only get better. Fitted to golf mk7 with bi xenon.

5/5

Whilst the thought of upgrading your xenon bulbs, which should last most of the life of the car seems daft. I replaced the standard bulbs with these and wow what an improvement. The light is much whiter and stronger than the manufacturer standard bulbs and night time visibility is huge. If you can spare the cash then get these bulbs!! Powerbulbs are a great company to buy them from too. Very competitive prices and very quick delivery.
