As i said in my previous post, im looking for the largest throw of light possible and not bothered entirely on aesthetics.

Thanks!!
If you want the best output then yes go for Nightbreakers in the dipped and main beam units.

The Superwhites are purely a styling choice, I think they are slightly better than the standard bulbs but not as much light as the Nightbreakers.
I fitted them to match the side lights and drl's etc.

I have Nightbreakers fitted to dipped and main beam on my Passat that I use for commuting. Dipped on the Passat is also poor with standard bulbs but the main beam is like a 6 light rally pod compared to the weedy main beam on the f20/21.

Cheers
