Go for OSRAM SilverStars instead. MUCH better bulbs. Made by Sylvania but specifically for European cars. They are clear as opposed to Sylvanias's blueish spectrum. I only know of two places that carry them...

I ended up getting the 55w ones all around, and then Philips All Weather for the fogs. Ended up making a change and got the OSRAM - Silverstar 55w +50% light for the low beams, the OSRAM Hyper Clear 65w +80% Competition for the high beams (Daniel Stern's recomendation), and then NARVA / PHILIPS - Gold 55w for my fog lights. Could not be happier at this point. The Narva's are as yellow as you can get these days, all quality bulbs and make a huge difference in driving. I've had my headlights set to 'Euro' mode so I can just use the fogs independantly (i know i'm not supposed to), but in white out snow here, the yellow works like a champ.
