Phillips Extreme Vision H7 High Beam in Lits?

Anybody try the Phillips Extreme Vision H7 bulbs in their high beams with Litronics on their Boxster?

Searched, no joy.

Also, anybody use them in their fog lamps with Litronics?

Thanks, gang!

I haven't the need to replace them as yet. Are you not satisfied with the stock bulbs? I find mine adequate, but if those are better, I'd give them a try.

No...

....I'm just always on the lookout for improved headlight performance. Lots of deer around here.

This bulb appears to be an improvement according to advertising and a few posted reviews, but I'd like to hear from a Boxster owner if they work well in our cars.

I use them in all my vehicles with no problems. It's as good as halogen is going to get.

Not in fog lights, as extra brightness seems counterintuitive. Osram All Season in fogs ... they're yellow.
