Sturdy and useful but did not fit.

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. 09/13/2025: I had to replace my passenger side low beam light and I followed the same procedure as the first time and it went smoothly. 1. Turn wheels outward. 2. Remove clips/screws to lower or remove fender liner to access bulb housing lid cover 3. Remove bulb power connector 4. Unlock clamp and remove old bulb 5. Insert new bulb and lock new bulb securely w/clamp 6. Reconnect power 7. TEST bulb 8. Close bulb housing securely and 9. Reinstall fender liner w/clips and screws. That's it guys, it should take 30 minutes to 1 hour MAX depending on how easy it is for you to remove the clips/liners and insert the bulb back into position before closing everything up. To see how the bulb should be positioned, just take a look at the other working light bulb from the outside and see what direction the ignitor is pointed (down). I've added more pictures (Sep 2025).

Bulbs Came Fast And Work Fine

Brightness is not as it says on the listing "Intense White Light" but rather it's more of a yellowed light. Still, I have to blame myself for this buyer's mistake because if you search Google for the measurement of color for light output, you'll see that 4200k is not as "intense of white" as it claims. So a quick Google search would have told me not to believe the intense part of the claim. Oh well. The light on the drivers side (left) is the OEM light which is probably 5000 or 6000k. The one on the right (passenger) is this one. See the difference. I don't like it, but I'm not changing it. I'll leave it in until it burns out as I'm already past the return window. Quoted from Google search results, "Color temperature is a measure in Kelvin that defines the color appearance of the light produced by any source. The range of color temperature goes from warm yellow hues, at low Kelvin values, to cool bluish tones at high values. In vehicle headlighting, the color temperature is more than an aesthetic choice; it is very important in terms of visibility and glare and in general driving safety. Driving at night can make a big difference in your choice of color temperature of the headlights. The warmer light at a lower Kelvin value is easier on the eyes and provides better contrast in bad weather conditions, such as fog, rain, or snow. At a higher Kelvin value, cool light can light up more details when on a clear road but produces glare on wet or reflective surfaces. Understanding color temperature will help in the choice of the right kind of headlight for driving conditions and comfort." We never have ANY precipitation in Phoenix so I don't have to worry about contrast or wet surfaces. I wanted what the car came with, but that's not what this is. It does work, so I have to give it at least 4 stars, but I deducted one because of the *Intense* & *White* wording it erroneously uses. UPDATE: It's been five months since replacing one of the lights on my 2014 Model S. So far the light is still strong & has not flickered its way to being completely off like the old one. I'd been living with that for a whole 2 years, so it was time. I still have that one gripe from before. It's not as white as your old ones from the factory. I've seen on the TMC forums that some people prefer this slightly off-white look to it. Not me. I miss the old OEM factory white straight out of Tesla factories.

商品の表記では4200Kとなっていますが、実際は6000Kに近いのでは？ と思うような色でした。 片方のみの交換では左右で色が変わってしまう可能性があります。 購入される方は、その点にご注意ください。

I recently purchased these to replace a burnt-out headlights on my Acura, and I’m really satisfied with its performance. Installation was straightforward, and it fit perfectly into the headlight housing. The brightness and clarity of the light are impressive, much better than my old bulb. It produces a crisp, white light that greatly improves nighttime visibility without being too harsh or blinding to other drivers. One thing I really appreciate is that the color consistency between the two headlights is spot on, so there’s no awkward mismatch. The quality of the build feels solid, and I expect it to last as long as my previous bulbs. If you're looking for a reliable replacement for your HID headlights, especially for an Acura RDX, this bulb is definitely worth the price. It’s a bit more expensive than some alternatives, but the performance and reliability make it a great investment.

Works and fits as it should. The mechanic shop was charging me 7500 for one, that also not Philips quality. So I got the original Philips one from here.

Product is used .... And not functioning properly
