4200 Xenon bulb needed

[steve3200]

Does anyone know where I can obtain a Maserati 4200 (2003) Xenon headlight bulb? the main dealer price is about £160 !

I was hoping for something a lot cheaper, maybe an Alfa equivalent or non OEM

Thanks, Steve

The xenon bulbs are standard across may cars, but after market ones can operate at different temps which will give you a different colour light [An MOT Fail if too extream].

Ebay have lots from main-stream makers, phillips etc for about £35...if I recall correctly its a D2S for the unit.

Has anyone fitted front side light bulbs that are a near match to the colour of the HID's?

I fitted led side bulbs to mine. To my eye they are a little too white but certainly better than the standard bulb.

David Howson did to his Yellow 4200. He did a how-to a post on here if with photos.

At that price, it's probably worth simply fitting the pair. Of course, then you 'll find it's the electronics that have gone, but I guess that wiring in aftermarket can't be *too* hard.
