PHILIPS42302C1 D3S Standard Xenon HID Headlight Bulb, 1 Pack

Item shipped well packaed and on time. Authentic packaging ans item. this fit perfectly in my e46 coupe, restored the brightness my older OEM bulbs had lost over the years. Working perfect so far!

I can't believe how difficult it has become to replace a bulb. That being said, research your vehicle for installation help.My vehicle had an access panel in the wheel well. Most important is not to get finger oils or and other dirt or grease on the glass. That will cause the bulb to overheat and become unusable in a short time. This was a great price compared to local parts stores, and it came carefully packed. My recommendation is to order it separately, so it does not get damaged in transit with other items.

Fits perfect and works great on my 2009 BMW 328i (E90).

Bought a pair for replacing a burned out bulb - recommended to replace in pairs. They fit perfectly on my CLA250 and if anything the light is somewhat brighter and I can see better farther down the road than with the original bulbs that came with the car.

Received this bulb not expecting much since I had read that some got unauthentic bulbs. Mine tested as authentic and work good in my car. I drive a 2016 BMW 428i gc and they fit perfectly. I only have two complaints about this bulb, first: the stock bulbs I have in my car, are a teensy bit more white in color compared to this bulb. Doesn’t bother me any, but it drives my husband crazy despite the fact he doesn’t even drive this vehicle. Second: when we received the bulb and my husband carefully took it out of its box, he noticed that something in the square box was rattling inside.. my original bulb doesn’t do that. So I’m unsure on if the bulb was shipped that way or if it happened while in transit.. (I’m sure the packages get tossed around here and there.)All-in-all, it’s overall the best bang for your buck, but be sure to know the kelvin scar of your car

Perfect fit, easy install, fast delivery, very good product. Highly recommend.

I bought an off-brand, a 2-pack for about $35, which was great until one bulb decided to come on only when it wanted to. Took my JGC SRT to the dealer for service and asked them to diagnose whether it's a bad bulb or another issue. Dealer was nice to give me a free diag. Cost from them to replace both bulb was $850 + $250 per bulb. Service manager told me if a new bulb does not fix the issue, then I may need to replace the ballast. WTH!!!!!I decided to save over $1K, buy a known brand - Philips, which I believe is also OEM. O'Reilly's had this same bulb for twice the cost. Folks there are awesome, but I bought two here for the price of one there.Long story short. Both bulbs are working great, but the installation is a major pain! Took me over an hour the first time I installed the driver side bulb and only 15 minutes for the passenger side.This second time the driver's side took me 15 minutes and the passenger side took me an hour. You can YouTube vids on how to replace these headlight bulbs, which can be done, not really hard, but a major pain. Wear cheap silicon gloves to protect your hand.Quick tips: You will need to remove your air filter to get to the driver's side. You'll need to move the ECU over a bit on the passenger side.Very difficult, near impossible to see what you are doing. I used my phone to take a vid of the open bulb compartment to get a "visual". You will have to install by "touch". Removing the bulb was pretty easy.Bottom line, great buy, great value. Good luck on the installation. Grab a beer or two or three. Cheers!

This review is for Philips D2R Standard Authentic Xenon HID Headlight Bulb, 1 Pack. I had bougthen this bulb back in 2020 when the driver side headlight on my Infiniti G35 started flickering and finally went out a few months later. I wanted an authentic HID bulb for my car so I chose this Philips D2R C1 bulb because it has a Certificate of Authentication (CoA) affixed to the bottom of the box that I could verify on their website. Mine was authentic so that was a relief. I wasn’t sure if the new light would match my other light because it was “85126” and not “85126+” like the old bulb but I went ahead and installed it anyway. Replacing the headlight on the Infiniti G35 isn’t as difficult as many YouTubers make it out to be. There are even videos with people saying to take out the tyres!? Some say removing the tyres is not necessary but then they turn the tyres inwards, which is actually counterintuitive to me. I turned my tyres outward as far as it would go and it was wide open for me to reach in and do what I had to do. It took about 30 minutes to get the job done. The trick is to remember how everything fits in originally and use markers or photos to notate, if necessary. Another trick is to put the new bulb directly into the housing, lock it in place, and then attach the power connector. I had a difficult time when I attached the new bulb to the power connector first and then tried to lock them into position afterwards. Don’t do that! Just stick the new bulb into the slot, lock it in place with the clamp and then connect the power. Much easier doing it this way! Also, wear gloves to prevent touching the bulb. When I was done, the new light matched perfectly to the original passenger side headlight so I was really happy with it. Overall, perfect OEM headlight. It’s made in Germany and not China. I would recommend buying directly from Amazon and not a third party seller to ensure that you get an authentic Philips headlight. My original headlight lasted almost 10 years so I'm hoping that this one will last as long. I’d give it a 5.0/5.0 - 08/07/2023.
