Title: What kind of bulb goes in this socket?
Post by: Mikeyw03 on 24 November 2016, 20:06:58

https://s12.postimg.org/huse0f6rx/Bulb_Socket.jpg I ordered these lights from Germany, fitment is for omega vauxhall. It doesn't look like the H1 or H7 that i currently have. I'm using them in my Catera after I disassemble and use parts from old and new. Thanks

Bulbs required should be listed on a label on the top of the light unit :-\

Euro cars don't have an orange marker light, which might make your wiring different... also, the lights you have bought might have xenon low beam (outboard) lights with halogen main beam... xenons use a D2S bulb ;)

So if it's D2S than i have to upgrade to HID?. I may just swap out with my old H1 projector it seems to fit nicely. Thanks

A picture paints a thousand words and all that, but basically yes :y
