I just flew home to find my 'party pack' of replacement lights from Susquehanna waiting for me .
I've ordered 3 x 100W upgraded high beams and 3 x 80W low beams, plus some other assorted stuff (spare bulb for my Hella map light, rear fog light, etc).
While all the lights are packaged in Hella boxes (and the rear fog is 'Made In Germany') all of the lights appear to be made in Korea (100W) and "Optilux" 80W from Korea as well. I also have a spare 55W in Hella packaging with "Sylvania" USA on the bulb.
All of the low beam lights (9006) seem to have part of the 'painted shield at the tip of the light' missing - poor QC?
Is this legit? I always thought the bulbs were actually made in Germany as well?
Cheers, Hugh
