just received my H7 (rm110) and H1 (rm90) from bro trojan.
there's this sticker on the side for shops to sell it at double the price.
so, buy from forummers are indeed cheaper. hehe..

Legal wise....i doubt there will be any problem compare those people who uses HID modification. I bought my unit about 5 months back from a supplier located along Jalan Segambut Utara. The shop houses have a big OSRAM logo. I bought from him at RM95/unit. Can get cheaper if buy more....those use GPS...can locate the shop at this coordinate 3.181727, 101.680473

H4 on lmst. clean and kinda clear lamp plastic..
Then I'm not too sure bro. I'm using a relay kit and have all those grounding kit, VS and etc. Perhaps electrically my cars more stable? Worse case scenario is you bought a fake Osram?

could be just because of the camera white balance?
Manual mode with tripod. All settings exactly the same.

Strange. Everyone seems to have poor bulb lifespan. In that case I'm beginning to suspect mine is the exception since it lasted as long as it did for me.

yup, it's true.. actually i'm expecting longer lifespan while using these osram night breaker plus..
but the result is not as good as i'd like to get, and now i'm finding the reason why it happened..
i dont think the headlamp booster i'm currently using is the main factor to make it blow faster..

Myvi plug and play. Just make sure the wattage is ok otherwise too high a wattage and you'll burn the ori socket.

I don't think I've ever come across fake Nightbreakers. I can only think of ENEOS for your location, but I'm sure some online forummers might have some for sale

Red : Problem, no light at all...
Blue : Good, no problem

any clue what happened ? if it's due to fuse, which fuse ?
I've checked the fuse box below the driver side, seems to be good.
