Ok - so out of those 2, which and why? The £55 one has a smaller ballast...

Help...!

I got these ones, they are the cheapest and they work a treat.

You don't need to worry about H7R, as long as your headlamps are correctly adjusted. I had H7 xenons in my 620ti.

At the end of the day, it's a replacement bulb. It's not OEM, but then you could say that Halfords super-bright bulbs aren't OEM either... yet nobody would think of reporting those to their insurance company...

You know that is a very good point and has made me very tempted (again) to buy a set.

Any reccomendations for a ZT with standard headlights?

should I ignore this?? Reading it put me off last time and I sold my kit

They are all pretty much the same...

In my opinion, just by the £30 odd quid ones which are "e" marked & enjoy the remarkable change in the view you get at night.Too many people seem terrified of our Stalinist government rules & regs.Fit them & let others worry

Any definitive answer before my voucher expires?

Pretty much all much of a muchness (how many muches in the same sentence?) I would just go for the cheapest ones as they're all unheard of brands as mine are & I'm happy
