Now with D2S bulbs I do not want to touch Chinese so that really leaves Osram or Philips.

Philips cooking model or is the Xtreme Vision versions worth the extra fun tokens?

If they are bi-xenons like these:



They should use a D2R like this:



The black bit round the bulb also runs along the base of the filament which you can just see in the pic below:



There are MANY poor quality fakes about so I'd be prepared to spend a little more in the hope of getting a genuine one.

I'd have a look at these and the info linked within his advert, plus feedback to decide if they are genuine. I bookmarked the seller years ago and he's been selling these consistently ever since

Ah yes, thank you for that your headlights look identical to mine so I shall procure some D2Rs!

Never realised I had the better spec lights but it seems my car was built in the last month ever for the D2 so has lots of extras.
