Default Bugeye morette bulbs (H1, H7 ?)

Just about to fit a set of front morettes to my bugeye WRX.

I believe they take H1 and H7 bulbs ?
Which one is normal dipped beam ?

The headlights are brand new, never fitted so I was looking at upgrading the bulbs while they are going on. Can anyone recommend good replacements, esp for dipped beam either online or in-store.

Cheers
Martin

Sorry cannot help you with the bulbs, but where did you buy your morettes from and how much did you pay, have been looking for a while now but they all seem to be very high priced

Thumbs up

Good bulbs are the uprated ones, advertising 50% brighter, etc, rather than higher wattage.

Halfords are selling their 50% brighter range in the gold boxes, at the moment for BOGOF, so excellent value. Philips Vison Plus and GE Megalight are also highly rated.

Halfords bulbs also won a recent test in Auto Express, coming first in output and optical performance.
