When queried, the insurance company explained that optional extras are insured as mods that were factory fitted but not on the spec of vehicle as it would be in standard guise.

The tests were the same for both types, despite the different light sources: filament for the halogen and an arc between electrodes for HID. Lumens (denoted by lm) are a measure of the total amount of visible light (to the human eye) from a bulb or light source Software then measures the light at various points in the beam. It’s an unusual, if not unique, set-up, but the results have been corroborated by tests at parent company Osram’s conventional light tunnel in Germany, which we have used in the past.Color temperature is an indication of colour and not to be confused with heat. Color temperatures over 5,000K are called cool co I never said that they only consider performance enhancing what I said is most insurance companies don't charge or charge very very little for aesthetics whereas performanceenhancing modifications tend to have a massive charge again depending on your insurance.

That's where they should have declared as we all know insurance will look for anyway to not pay out ... However a simple uprated halogen that is marked for road use will is not a problem. But we are still deviating off topic ... Options will be available to people with all types of fitment and it probably won't take long for road legal versions of said items ...Introducing Philips’ most stylish and whitest, road-legal set of halogen bulbs – the Philips WhiteVision Ultra. There are no bad H4 bulbs here, but the RacingVision is our choice. For top D3S performance it has to be the Philips, and Ring is our standard choice. Don’t be tempted to save cash on unbranded alternatives.

Bulbs are placed in a headlamp - a reflector type from a Fiat 500X for halogen bulbs, projector from an Audi A3 for HID - allowed to burn in to settle output, then an image is taken of the beam pattern on the wall. As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Philips can guarantee precise fitting and alignment to enhance the view of the road ahead. With much greater awareness of the presence of potential hazards, the headlights will help you drive with safety in mind. Experience a colour temperature of up to 3700K which will give the stylish appearance of LED headlights. With the manufacturer’s meticulous design and testing processes, the range has been approved to ECE standards for use on UK roads.Yes, this is the problem here, most insurance companies do not really care whether it is legal or not legal, it only matters whether they are paying out more in case of a claim. I sometimes doubt that whether VOSA or any other legal authorities are doing anything to stop illegal mods. Every evening, I have cars behind me with odd and ill adjusted beams (on one side) shining into my mirrors and my eyes, I am not even sure if they have their proper MOTs or simply illegal uninsured cars. Then you have plenty of cars having at least one missing brake light on the road. Are these more dangerous than replacing your plate bulbs with LEDs? Certainly. But are insurance companies helping out to rectify these, a big NO! Please note: Due to the enhanced white light, the Philips WhiteVision Ultra range has a shorter expected lifespan compared to standard halogen bulbs. As a result, we only offer a 6-month warranty on this range. The Figure of Merit for HID is close to double that of the halogen, with a beam that’s 30 or so metres longer.
