some sort of power relay...I think it will eventually contribute to shorter lifespan of the bulbs

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

the wattage on the h4 that you are using is not a problem right? one more thing, where can i get an original one. scared of imitations. I'm living in ttdi. any suggestions?

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

Bro., my VR are on normal 100/90w watt bulb, no issue in durability and melting of the sockets. However do not fit those cheap bulbs from kedai Abang. That one I had issues. Rated 60/55w but suppose to give out 130/110w lighting. Well, it is bright but no focus, very glaring. I had to tune the headlamp lower. Bulb did not last. First one blew in 4 months, second in 8 months, melted both my lamp sockets, then change back to to normal bulbs....

The bulbs should cost you about RM90 to RM110. PH Auto is a spare parts shop. You can quite easily change the bulbs yourself, just make sure never to touch the glass part of the bulb only.

I'm currently using Osram cool blue intense...I don't know how much difference the colour tone with night breaker, on the package it says 4200k. It is a lot whiter than my standard bulbs. But brighter? Well...yes and no. The surrounding is not brighter but the focused part is as my headlamp is projectile type. Look nicer on my car? Well yessss!!

Btw I bought it from LYN, H11 RM165 with side bulbs.

Yup, PH Auto is a spare part shop only, no installation...

Bro. naqi, If not into DIY, get your usual mechanic to do it...

Cool blue intense have 20% more light then normal, Night breaker is 90% more...

Naqi, changing the bulbs are as easy as ABC don't worry. Just make sure you don't hold the glass part with your bare hands as the oil would spoil the bulb.

I believe cool blue intense is whiter....if its not, then I'll be sad wahahah...I change it just to have the whitish light..what to do..no $$ buy proper HID haha and it's illegal so just wana avoid any trouble.

VR,
the kedai potong i go to does sell bulb only......since he has many headlamps, if a buyer buys a headlamp & request for bulb,
he just take from another headlamp & fit it.
