I recently purchased some cibie 7" headlights, and thought it was saying that they are fantastic! :D

They are a massive improvement over any other headlight i have tried, a strong dip beam which also light the side of the road verywell, and a Full beam which is extemely good to the point you do not need spots (though combined with spots are unbeatable).A good strong white light!

No need for xenons!

***HERE***

They are the H180 Main/Dip + Side - however the website is out of date and are now £29 each (£58 for the pair)

The side beam bulb is located slightly lower so you have to cut a small piece out of the headlamp holder, about 1" square.

And the side is a bayonet fitting bulb.

I emailed them, and they are usually quick to reply and very helpfull. Once they recieved them from Cibie (Valeo), they were sent via courier and i recieved them the next day :thumbsup:

Are these Oscar H4s or another Cibie range?

Cibies have always been the best.

On the headlight itself it sais "Iode H4"

how do these compare to the wipac halogens? im quite tempted to get some.


The headlights i took off were Wipac Halogens, and i used the same H4 bulbs with the new new cibie lenses and it produces a much whiter lighter and a much better beam pattern.
