are the cheap xenon bulbs available on ebay trustable or do they break after few hours?

Thanks for your answers!

Ebay is hit-and-miss. If they work then you win, if not let us all know so we don't make the same mistake...

Good luck!

I'd go for Phillips branded bulbs, they come in differet styles for what suits your driving, there's a Phillips "power" or something like that that gives more even spread of "white" light and an additional perceived brightness of 25%
there's loads of 100W bulbs floating about on Ebay - these arn't road legal and will possibly burn out the wiring loom, espeically with DRL's

I'd be wary of using the 100s. My headlights get hot to the touch, and that's with stock 55W bulbs (and an 850).
