    Hi folks,

    A while back I ended up buying Tungsram H11-55NHX/BP2 Nighthawk Xenon bulbs to replace my dim stock headlights on my 2021 Tacoma. I was pretty happy with them and they were great driving around the woodsy roads at night up here.

    Well, one finally burned out, and I went to repurchase a pack only to find out Tungsram seems to be out of business.

    I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for another good bright stock headlight upgrade? I'm having a little difficulty figuring out the most comparable light types to Tungsram's Nighthawk Xenon with the other manufacturers.

    If anyone has any recommendations for good bulbs I'd be interested.

    Thanks!

    GE has been a majority stakeholder in Tungsram since 1990. So look for GE Nighthawks. Not sure if the quality will be the same but should be just a name change for the most part. You should be able to find old stock Tungsram online too... they only went out of business the middle of last year (April/May 2022). So there will still be stock around in warehouses.
