Hi all
Please help. My dip bulb has failed.
In the list on this site it shown H7 55w for high beam and dip.
I have a owners manual on disk. That shows H1 55w for dip and H7 55w for main.
Which is correct, please. I will replace both when the front is off. What is recommended for occasional night riding, please.

Regards

H7 for both. Ozram night breaker or Phillips all weather are my favourites.

Hi Dave
Thanks for the info.
Only Halfords near me and they had their own and Bosh at a high price. Found Osram Night Breaker on eBay for collection at my local Argos pickup point.

Hi all
Just to say new bulbs fitted and a great improvement to the old ones.
The eBay order to Argos pick-up point worked a treat, it's the first time I have used it. As no one was at home from Thursday till Monday (expected delivery Friday) it saved a wasted delivery and try to re-arrange. I just took the emailed reference number and collected on Monday to suit me.

I've never tried the pick up service. For me Argos is further away and harder to park than the post office collection depot and I tend to use the on-line change or redelivery request to Fridays when I'm at home.
I don't often use mail order for car/bike spares which are common consumables as I'm surrounded by motor spares/factors so it's quicker to go get it from them.
There is even a small chance we may be moving work premises to close to Halfords/McDonalds/Tesco/Transport Models soon.
