981 Cayman Headlight Bulbs

Hi,

Has anyone upgraded their standard (non Xenon) H7 headlight bulbs?

If so, which ones would you recommend please?

I find the standard lights quite poor if I'm honest.

Thanks.

Hi, I did this on a halogen 981 Boxster - one of the best upgrades I did to it.

I bought the Phillips LED dipped beam bulbs. By far the most expensive LED product on the market for them, but I wanted to ensure great quality and remove any fear or overheating risks. I ran them for three years with zero fault.

Technically any non-halogen bulb is illegal in a halogen housing and will fail an MoT, but I had zero issues. The colour is OEM and the beam pattern is sharp. You’ll have no issues.

Thanks very much, I will try and find those ones online and get some ordered up.

Schuey, let me know what you go with. I appear to have a bulb out (but no warning message...) so I will obviously replace - and ideally upgrade - both. Just looking into options.

If you can post any updates/links

ie these look like the right fitment: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-Ultinon-headlight...

But do either of these work on a 981?
