drivers side xenon gone pink/purple

[fismail]

Hi.

Last replacement set I bought in January 2012 which was Osram D2S for R2200 per pair.
Before that car came with Philips D2S which was in the car from build 11/2004.

Any recommendations on decent bulbs in Gauteng , Centurion side ?

Ballasts and what not are 11 years old on the car so what to ensure wiring is uptodate before getting new bulbs and only having a short lifespan on them.

I got a pair of Osram Xenarc D2S bulbs from an auto parts store in The Plaza last year for R1800, made the world of difference!

Got Philips D2S HID X-Treme Vision from autostyle 2 weeks ago for the M5, had same pink/purple bulb problem.

Cant believe these things cost so much. Ended up buying Chinese stuff because I could fork out for two bulbs.
950 for a set.
Must admit its not as bright though
