A widespread problem in the automotive lighting industry is the increase of counterfeit bulbs in the marketplace. It can be difficult to check the authenticity of bulbs, but to counter this growing concern, Philips have given the consumer an easy way of determining for certain whether or not they have received genuine Philips products. Each of our products comes with a unique QR code that can be verified as authentic by Philips. Read more here.

As with Philips’ highly regarded first generation of X-tremeUltinon bulbs, the new X-tremeUltinon gen2 achieves both a strikingly stylish LED light colour alongside a vastly improved projection of light. Where the original headlight range offered a 6500K white light, up to 200% brighter than standard, the X-tremeUltinon gen2 favours an even higher performing light output without sacrificing style.
The Philips X-tremeUltinon gen2 is able to produce a magnificent light, up to 250% brighter than standard, while retaining a classic cool white LED light with a colour temperature of up to 5800K. Such an expansive projection not only heightens your presence on the road at night, but also ensures you notice potential hazards and obstacles much earlier than normal. Meanwhile – owing to Philips’ use of premium Lumileds LUXEON Altilon SMD LED chips – the X-tremeUltinon gen2’s crisp white projection achieves a look of supreme style, managing to be both visually striking and optically comforting.
Thanks to Philips’ scrupulous eye for detail and world-class engineering standards, the X-tremeUltinon gen2 are also designed with longevity and resilience in mind. By implementing their patented heat-management and cooling technologies (AirFlux and AirCool, respectively), Philips have designed a bulb capable of defending itself against extreme weather and overheating. This, alongside the bulbs’ durable, shock-proof design and energy-efficient LED technology grants you an amazing bulb lifespan of up to 12 years.
Of course, the lifetime, style and strength of a light mean very little if the beam itself doesn’t reach its target – the road. Thankfully, with the X-tremeUltinon gen2, Philips have implemented their own renowned SafeBam technology, ensuring the road ahead is captured perfectly in the beams’ projection, and other drivers on the road are not dazzled by the bulbs’ massive expanse of light.
Make the change to Philips X-tremeUltinon gen2 today, and enjoy long-lasting, tremendous improvements both to your vehicle’s lighting performance and style.
PLEASE NOTE: These headlights do not have ECE approval, and as such their usage is currently not approved for use on public roads: their usage is limited to ‘off-road’ applications. In addition, their installation may trigger a bulb error message to appear on the vehicle's on-board computer system / dashboard. This is a harmless side-effect of the low-wattage LED bulbs not being recognised by the vehicle's CANbus system and can be solved with the installation of an additional Philips Canbus Adapter
