Main beam H7 bulbs

Looking to replace the main beam H7 bulbs with something a bit brighter and a lot whiter.
The existing bulbs look a bit yellow against the HIDs and led sidelights.
Anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks.

I put some LED's in my last one they looked like a Darlec to get enough LED's on but quite frankly the light spread wasn't the best so I haven't as yet bothered with my new one . 2008 MY Supercharged

HID's and parabolick reflectors just don't go together , you would get a very random light

They aren't brilliant ... there are better and 'whiter' ones on eBay. Land Rover Addict

Trouble is I want genuine road legal from a reputable manufacturer.
Bit wary of ebay Chinese made stuff.

Well it says in big letters : 'E Approved & Fully Road Legal'

So if they aren't then I guess they can be reported.... Land Rover Addict
