    And if xenon, I'd imagine it's a d3s bulb.

    Yes they're Xenon D3S. I've sourced OSRAMs but can't find anywhere selling Philips which are apparently oem.

    Anyone order online from a legit source or know a shop selling?

    Cheers, have you ordered off them yourself?

    Few reviews claiming bulbs arrived in blank boxes potentially fakes?

    I wouldn't worry so much about Philips.
    Order a reputable brand in 4500k light colour and buy 2 and you will be good as factory.

    Otto in Airton have two ds3 OSRAMs but they can't tell me the the kelvin. 70e each tho which is a great price. But wondering are they only 4150k

    I wouldn't call that a great price. It's great versus audi but that is not saying much

    Powerbulbs is fully legit.

    Much cheaper compared to anywhere in Ireland.
