You are right.

H7 (not H&) dipped

H3 main

H3 Fog

If you RTFM the owners manual it should tell you. There are many threads about which make of bulb is best, so do a search. Osram Nightbreakers and Philips X-tream are the most popular if you want to upgrade.

The Philips bulbs always come top on in the Auto-Express tests. However they may be a bit biased as they are tested in the Philips Labs using their equipment.

I am thinking of buying some as one of my mothers dipped bulbs has blown. I have in my car Philips Vision Plus (50% extra) dipped and Nightbreaker mains. I am tempted by the X-treams, but unsure if they are worth the extra £7 than the Osrams if I get them from Powerbulbs. PowerBulbs - H7
