Did a little work over the weekend on my niece’s car, a 2004 Sonata. Factory bulbs are h7. I couldn’t see a damn thing at night... Literally nothing. So, grabbed some Phillips Extreme Power 130+ locally. I wanted to order some Osram Rallye bulbs from candlepower but ran out of time.

Needless to say, factory rated h7 on the left, 130+ and a 2-minute buff with Meguires Scratch-x on the right. Still need to aim them up (pointed pretty far down right now) but ran out of time.

They should stop letting car companies make headlights out of cheap plastics.

I use that exact bulb in my car, seems to do a decent job. Don’t feel they are tons brighter than what I’ve had in before, but I think part of that is just Volvo using decent bulbs from the factory.

Those are the same bulbs I run in the cornering lights on my ‘16 GTI. Having that much light coming out beyond the left/right reach of the headlights is super useful.

I’ve got the Philips Xtreme Vision 130%+ on my Accent. Good bulbs, though my headlights need a good buffing. My drivers light is cracked and a brand new one wrapped in plastic and a box is sitting on my rear seat to install on a warmer day. My passenger side light is undamaged other than the UV damage, so once I get the buffing done to that one, hoping to have the same results you have! :)
