Just about to buy some of these bulbs but have one question, just read they are going to be discontinued so if one blows what would I do, do I need to then change all four? if so I may get a spare pack.
If anyone is about to buy some and wants a spare maybe we could split the cost of a pack and get one sent to each of us with the other bulbs, let me know if getting a spare is the only option

If one blows you just replace it with a new one, other 3 would be unaffected. If upgraded bulb it'll match, if standard it'll be a bit dimmer. Siiiiiimples.

Problem is I don't want different bulbs and light, looks odd, would rather invest up front for a spare now than have to change the other 3 if one blows, new type will obviously be different and is 20% more than the non discounted price of the ones being sold, so seems like something to think about and plan for

See, it's just not true what they say about the post office.
I might though, just for the giggle, send the next set out marked "Urgent" & "Glass" just to see what happens Paul Redding

Well I bought the bulbs and the new Michelin windscreen wipers and I am delighted with both-the bulbs are definitely brighter and best of all the wipers are quiet. Blessed relief!!!

It'd be good to keep us posted on how long they last compared to normal output bulbs?
