    I got 2x Genuine Lucas branded bulbs on EBay for £3.80 delivered...... Chances are the original bulbs in most cars are made by Lucas.

    The headlamp bulb in my Fiesta blew last night - the car is not even 2 years old.

    Ebay User carparts4less appears to be based in the US. :huh:

    Did you mean Ebay User carpartssaver (who confusingly have an ebay shop called Car Parts 4 Less ?)

    If so, their Lucas H7 bulbs appear to cost £8.39 each! :eek:

    Sorry can't post links, but item id is 291026360792

    (Actually, there is currently a BOGOF with these currently, but still almost twice the price of Lidl)

    2 years is about when id expect headlight bulbs to start failng, even the fancy expensive bulbs i had in the past. I use headlights in all but the brightest of summer sun.

    It is a web only division of Euro car parts

    Its always handy to have a set of spare bulbs in the car, especially at this time of year.

    I just wish that the thousands of motorists out there would look at their own headlights and change the damn bulbs, I'm sick of counting the number of those with only 1 working light.
