H1 are normally fog light bulbs mate.

My Mk2 Ph1 uses a combination: H7 Main beam and H3 Dipped.

in a mk2 ph2/3, the lights are full beam H1, dipped H7, side 501 w5w.

fogs are H11 IIRC

apprenly osram night breakers are brilliant, i uses powerbulbs 50% brighter and they are great imo, got my bro to chip in as the powerbulbs are BOGOF i placed 2 orders so 2 set os free blue side lights to 2 cars decked out for £40 thats with the discount code.

Go for a power bulb set you back around £30 quid..
There filled with xenon gas to make it appear has if you have a HID conversion
Otherwise go for a HID but some are a nightmare to install

ive ordered a set of h11's and a set of h1's off ebay, cost me about £27 in all,

hopefully there all the right ones,

i was after a set of xenon lamps but every wher ei try there sold or not for sale...

there for a mk2 ph2 by the way forgot to mention

Hi all, i'm new around these parts.

I've just bought a 172cup and managed to get H7 phillips bulbs. Have I bought the right type of bulb? its a 2003, not sure what mark that is.

Also got a few rather embarrasing questions re the car but not sure where to post them:quiet:

yeah h7s are the right ones, have fun fitting them though! apprenly its a night mare. on the RS's, i found it tricky on the 1.2 with my big hands.
