Ok cheers, what about these?http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Peugeot_306_2.0_1999/p/car-parts/car-electrics-and-car-lighting/lighting1/car-bulb/?48177022V&1&d03708e951a4803b9b2090f1e84affe2ed0116d7&000384

The 60% newer ones are reviewed very highly by autoexpress, I pressume these are the ones they replaced?

Has anyone got any photos of their car with the Osram Nightbreakers on?

They took my Ph.1 twin-optics from shit to decent, so in Ph.3 projector headlights I imagine they also perform very well.

If you have Crystals, you need a total of 4x H7 bulbs to do dipped and main in both lights.

If it is your silver HDI then those are phase 3 crystal headlights (ph.2 ones have frosted glass, not clear).
Osram Nightbreaker Plus bulbs gave me a massive increase in visibility range in shit phase 1 lights.

If you don't want to spend loads of money you could just replace the dipped beam ones if you don't use main beam much. In my opinion they are well, well worth the money though.

I think OP wants to see and be seen for safety, not see far but blind others and have them hit him head on.

The biggest issue is the head light isn't designed to scatter the light correctly. The majority of cars with HIDs use projectors now. In fact, the only one i can think of that doesn't is the new Civic and i always seem to get blinded by them.
Regardless of if people think they do or don't blind others, the point is they are illegal and i genuinely wish people that use them to get a full arse raping by the law as it seems every chav in his 1.1 around here fits them and they genuinely are unsafe for other road users!
