Just get these for £6.40. I have them and they are white light.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-MK4-GTi-ICE-WHITE-XENON-HEADLIGHT-BULBS-/310245156794?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item483c0d67ba

Exactly the same light output as the philips and less money.. WIN!

I had cheap ones before but i found they didn't last well at all, mine went in a matter of  a few months the name brands seem to be much better.

Ive had my phillips in for years  :smiley:

Just my opinion though  :smiley:
