    Got my box of goodies from powerbulbs and will fit them all over the weekend. The Philips CANBUS gadgets are quite bulky though very good quality, just hope I can fit them in ok.

    Just received my D2S's from Metro Direct in the UK. $189 delivered and took just over a week to arrive. Pretty happy with that .
    I was a bit worried about the possibility of them not being genuine but they passed the OSRAM Authentication test with flying colours - OSRAM Trust Program | OSRAM Automotive

    Now to fit them.

    Fitted globes on saturday.

    D2S fairly straight forward.
    H7 high beam LED globes was a bit harder as the Philips CANBUS module is bulky plus the H7 have a smaller controller with them. Managed to shoehorn everything in including a large loom - just.
    LED side marker lights and the CANBUS resistor was easy.
    H8 LED Fog lights was easy. Plenty of room for the bulky CANBUS module.

    H8 cornering lights though could not get in without either cutting a large junk out of the casing or toally dismantling the lights by heating in the oven to soften the adhesive. I have watached youtube video of this but elected to not attempt it. They can stay as 555w halogen.

    Assessment:

    - D2S - much improved, are they 200% better as claimed? I doubt it
    - High beam - some improvement but not a lot. Maybe 25%
    - Fog lights - brighter yes but think the halogens give greater range. I may remove thse yet or look for a better option.
    - side marker are while nice and white not overly bright so might get some other LED 5W5 globes

    Overall was it worth the $$ and effort? For the D2S definitely but a bit dissapointed with the others.

    I have a pair of Philips H8 LED bulbs and the Philips CANBUS modules if anybody is interested.

    cheers
