D3 Xenon headlight performance
So
I used the D3 at night for the first time in ages yesterday, and it was quiet apparent the light output of the headlights is poor. I'll take a stab and say the 14 year old Xenon bulbs are beyond their best and maybe shifting colour temperature.
I thing they will be D2S bulbs, perhaps someone can confirm. I am also guessing its a major ballache to change them?
I have no workshop faclilities and only a muddy driveway to work on, anyone fancy changing the bulbs if I get replacements.
The headlights are not clouded over, as I had them sorted last year to get through the MOT as they had fogged up badly.
