I have Night Breakers on my pfl - but didn't know they are termed laser- Is this a new light or just advertising hype??

It's the latest version of the one for the 2, I think mine are the same.

I'm thinking about getting some Nightbreakers.  How big a difference do they make?  Are they worth the £?

Are these the right ones for a FL?
H4 472 £14.99 eurocarparts.
Looking at the packaging they suggest these project up to 5m further down the road and are rated 130% compared to normal night breakers at 110.

Mine are H4s and were £17.50 from Amazon so I'm sure they're the same. They're a massive improvement over stock but I wouldn't pay £60 for them![emoji2]

I have these on my car too. They're ace. Strangely, I paid less than ECP from Powerbulbs, but they've put them up to £21.99 now (although they have 20% off right now)
I think I paid around £14.

I used these to boost the shocking headlamp performance on my Fiat Coupé. They made a massive difference, well worth the money.

I bought from Autobulbsdirect.co.uk – they're usually a fair bit cheaper than elsewhere.

I got the matching sidelight pips as well, just to be saucy.

Have been using these for some time in several different cars, won't use anything else
Only downside to them is that they don't last as long as some other brands

Autobulbsdirect.co.uk aren't the cheapest but their tool for looking up the type of bulbs you require is spot on.
Unlike eurocarparts.

These were new in 2016 as mentioned. They are an upgrade to the already very good nightbreaker unlimited, which I had on my old mr2. The new ones are called nightbreaker laser and offer a bit more light. I paid £15 for the H4 version at eurocarparts
