Hi this topic has probably been flogged to death but here goes, im keeping my original headlamp units (for now), im simply going to fit Osram nightbreakers before going the Cibie route. Im in Dubai and the suppliers here only have the night breaker plus available as opposed to the ultimate, is there a significant difference in performance between the 2 models? Im assuming the H4 12V 60/55W is a straight globe swap, am I correct?
thanks

Hi Grissly,
The Osram bulbs are a straight replacement for the original bulbs.
When replacing take extra care not to touch the glass as your finger prints become a hot spot and can lead to darkening of the glass and reduced output.
I have Nightbreaker Plus fitted to my Morgan and other cars in the family and have been happy with the beam and the lifespan. They were fitted over three years ago and still going strong.
To be honest if I had to replace them and all I could buy were the Nightbreaker Plus I would be happy to do that.
