Award-winning car lamps
Our lamps are often rewarded by automotive 
experts
Economical choice
Thanks to its single lamp replacement 
te
chnology Xenon Vision allows you to change 
your bulbs one by one while matching the 
colour temperature of the unchanged lamp. It 
is the most economical choice for lamp 
replacement.
Original Xenon technology
Xenon HID (High Intensity Discharge) lamps 
offer twice as much light for safer driving in all 
conditions. As a matter of fact, the intense 
white light produced by the Xenon HID lamps 
is comparable to daylight. Studies have 
demonstrated that xenon automotive lighting 
helps drivers to concentrate on the road and 
to distinguish obstacles and road signs much 
faster than traditional lamps.
Single-lamp replacement
Philips Xenon Vision replaces a single burnt-
o
ut lamp while matching the colour of the 
unchanged one. Its new single-lamp 
replacement technology allows for one-by-one 
replacement while still matching the colour 
temperature of the unchanged lamp. Thus, 
Xenon Vision is the perfect solution for single-
lamp replacement.
UV Resistant
Philips special anti-UV coating technology 
protects the headlights against harmful 
ultraviolet radiation, making Philips UV-coated 
quartz glass perfect for all driving conditions 
and ensuring their longevity
High-quality quartz glass
UV-Quartz glass is stronger than hard glass and 
highly resistant to temperature extremes and 
vibrations, which eliminates the risk of 
explosion. Philips quartz-glass lamps are able to 
withstand severe thermal shock. With the 
capability of increased pressure inside the 
lamp, UV-quartz glass is able to produce a 
more powerful light.
Resistance to humidity
Only a burning bulb made of quartz glass can 
res
ist thermal shocks, such as a drop of cold 
water touching the hot bulb, which can happen 
when you drive through water with a broken 
headlight unit.
