I think those are H7. Take the bulb out and compare with online images.

An H7: http://www.whybee.net/brands/OSRAM/G...H7BULBTYPE.jpg

An H1: http://www.hgvdirect.co.uk/catalog/i...bs/bulb_h1.gif

I'm about 99.999% certain it's NOT an H4. That has two filaments, one for dip, one for main, yours uses separate bulbs.

no its not mr pedantic but i was guessing it would be the same as the blob is the next model and its just different shaped lights so chances were its the same bulbs.

The problem with "guessing" is that it can end up costing someone else money.

Best to BE a pedant and get it right.

Are you just looking for an argument, or are you terminally stupid?

My "I THINK..." was just that, what I thought, but allowed him to go and get confirmation.

You just came out with a statement as to what was in yours...not even the same model.

Helpful? Not at all.

Aggressive? Oh yes.
Another keyboard warrior. Save it bud, not interested in your ***** waving.

i never told him to buy anything. i alluded to the fact that the bug sti had h1 bulbs so the blob might be the same. that was all nothing more. then you felt compelled to comment on my post and i responded. then you got all arsey about it. you didnt need to comment at all on my post and should have left alone. as i said you guessed and so did i. i didnt feel the need to pick on your post or question your "guesswork".
