I've looked at those and my concern with them is do they appear red enough or more pink? Be interesting to see if anyone has some fitted for comparison

Reminds me I bought these a few weeks ago but not fitted them yet

I'll put one in later to do a side by side comparison to see what they're like but tbh I don't hold out much hope as I've had this type of bulb before albeit a cheap eBay one
