Hi Santi
Depends how much you use them but 3-4yrs of average use you would see a difference by changing.
The bulbs go bluer over time and light output reduces a lot
I have just upgraded to d3s xtreme vision plus on my d4 and I'm blown away. Just done long drive on dark wet roads. The difference is immense and gone has the yellow light of the oem Osram d3s
Also changed the corner lights to h11 Osram intense and that made a bi difference. Only a tiny mod to bulb to get it to fit
LEDs are on order so should be in shortly
Best Regards Ian

Hi Ian
Afeter 6 years and taking into account your commets, I think it is the time of change
Reading yor firts post, my bi-xenon ref is 85122-1 x 2?
But You are telling that You replaced them by Osram Coolblue Intense 66240CBI-2, can I use on my D3?

I just checked and they are in stock - which sku did you try to order?
The Philips ones i tested in the D4 we dont have in stock yet - but we will soon. But these are D3S
The cool blues are very good - and ignore the name they are white not at all blue
disco315 code will work on the order

Thanks Ia, I will order soon. I think is time to change
Seeing photos it is not blue rather it seems white like I have now,
Seeing your link ref is 66240CBI-1, is correct? (Ruben says 66240-1)

Santi, tu sabes que llevo tiempo pensando en actualizar mis gastadas bombillas...y siempre tengo dudas del modelo...no quiero efectos tunning azulados ni nada de eso...quiero lo mas parecido al color de serie...mejorando si es posible..y por supuesto, evitar pagar la fortuna que piden en el concesionario por el recambio original...
...lo que yo creo es que si subes a muchos kelvin..te vas al azul...no entiendo mucho de esto ..pero creo que hay que estar cerca de los 4100 k de serie...subir algo mejora la luz..pero poco..si no quieres dar el cante con el coche tipo gitano...ya me entiendes
Santi, you know that I've been thinking of upgrading my worn bulbs ... and I always have doubts ...I do not want tunning effects in blue or nothing like that ... I want it more like the serial color ... improving if it´s possible .. and of course, avoid paying the fortune at the dealership asking for the original parts ...
if you upload many kelvin .. you're blue ... I do not know much about it .. but I think you have to be close to the 4100 serial k ... top little something .. but .. if you don´t want to give the sing with gipsy type car ... you get my drift lost in translation!

No no.
4100 is a yellow white.
5000k is daylight white nothing to do with blue.
The boy racer or gypsies have Chinese kits with an unknown colour.
The Osram and Philips bulbs are eu legal and therefore cannot contain any blue light at all
The cool blue intense give 20% more light than oem and it's a purer whiter light without even a hint of blue.
The CBI in the sku on the link I sent is correct reference for them
IID Pro MV License - D3, D4 & RRS - Enabling, Updates, D4 & RRS Timed / Remote Climate, D4 Bluetooth fitting

OK thanks Ian .. now I understand ... I think I will proceed to immediately to order my bulbs ... now with these rainy, dark and foggy winter days in Asturias is the right time...I will do it when they are no longer out of stock
...I imagine that they are completely legal despite its high intensity.... right?
beanie, thanks for your advice lost in translation!

thanks Ian, now is clear and also I was a little worried about blue effects as Ruben says.
Ruben, see photos on the link that Ian sent, and You can see there is not blue effects on the 5000k bulb and differece with 4100k.
Also I will order....and will send you a MP to consult to my other car.
