Have just tried ordering a replacment set off uprated headlamp bulbs for my wifes hyundai coupe, year 02 ( 96-02 ) range, now after confirming that the bulb required was this two pin H7 type, the seller now askes me what type bulb the dipped beam bulb is ?? when I replied back saying that there was only one bulb within the headlamp unit so surely this bulb will cover both main and dipped beam ?? I was told that he was surprised that this H7 was for both these main / dipped light purposes.

why ?? surely a single headlamp bulb again H7 in my case can cover both ??
he is starting to confuse me now !!!

anyone clarify the situation ????

cheers,

H7

H7 is a single-filament bulb so will not do both dip and main beam. If there's only one bulb in the unit, I'd be surprised if it's not an H4, which is a twin-filament bulb.

The bulb in the car only has two pins on the base, thought H4 had three pins ??

appreciatte the advice mate,

If your bulb has only two pins, there's another bulb lurking in there that you haven't found yet
