[QUOTE="gunnerzz, post: 1064738621, member: 166532"] Since we lived in a country blessed with unpredictable weather which can turn a hot scorching day into a thunderstorm in matter of minutes, my suggestion is to consider colour temp/xxxK rating of the bulb. LED are almost all white ( they can make it shine a bit lower K but they dont ), same goes for HID. White light is not suitable in Malaysia. Why? Yes, white light is excellent in the dark and can possibly reduces drivers fatigure when driving. My biggest issue with white light is that they are next to useless when it rains. Not many people realise this because most cars equipped with such lights can be considered newer cars and most of it are sold in town where street lighting is available. I used to change my front H1 bulb to aftermarket Osram both the NB and NBP. These bulbs do provide better lighting at night as more light is thrown on the road. However, when it rains and the road is wet at night...original bulbs are the best.White light are scattered when it hits wet surfaces....It just disappear. [/QUOTE]
