I wouldn't bother, they will be terrible. You're better getting Philips x-treme vision or Osram Night breaker Plus bulbs.

Something like Philips blue vision ultra will do.

That isn't a brand of bulbs we get in the UK, well I've never seen any. Plus he was after a blue tint, not 'power white'.

noone knows what kind of bulbs do you have in your meg ;) if you don`t bother other drivers with your light beam then they are ok...you don`t have any problems with the registration. Ofcourse it`s your choice if you buy them or not or maybe you will change your mind and buy them anyway :)

Did you actually check that the Megane wiring can handle 80W bulbs?
