We have had this S60R about a month now so I am still in refresh mode. It came with one headlight nice and bright (Eiko D2R bulb) and one yellow, dim and miserable (Philips D2R bulb). The Eiko started flickering this week, and the flicker moves with the bulbs if I change sides.

So I want to replace them both, is this what I want for good lighting (no Philips here this time, thank you):

This car has the single bulb headlights, the high beam switch just changes the beam angle by moving the reflector.

Ordered two of these Jahn D2R HID bulbs, installed 'em, ran them for a week including some long holiday travel and the answer is ... yes, these are a well priced solution for the xenon bulb headlights.
