OSRAM LED

Why not give your car a makeover by replacing your halogen bulbs with the latest generation LED lights?

A better technology and a more impactful design, that is the promise of OSRAM with the NIGHT BREAKER LED lamps approved for the road. These Retrofit lamps are approved for installation in halogen-based headlights, in accordance with the road traffic permit regulations (decree of 28.10.2021 regarding the national approval of replacement LEDs). OSRAM, the number one in automotive lighting, has fully designed the NIGHT BREAKER LED range from A to Z and tested it in close collaboration with UTAC. Approved by the National Vehicle Reception Center (CNRV), this range offers superior performance and a more modern visual signature, both day and night.

The LED look in full legality

According to OSRAM, H4-LED and H7-LED lamps provide up to 230% more brightness on the road. Thanks to their better resistance to vibrations, their lifespan is also up to 5 times longer.

Access the compatibility list and check if your vehicle is listed. Compare the approval number of the headlights in the list with the number on your car’s headlight. It starts with an “E” and one or two numbers inside a circle and is followed by a 4 or 5 digit numerical series. The vehicle list also contains information indicating whether you need an adapter for installation. You will receive a national reception certificate with the lamps, which guarantees the product’s legality. All NIGHT BREAKER LED lamps come with a 4-year OSRAM warranty from the date of purchase. Lamps purchased and installed in a professional workshop will receive an additional year of warranty.
