Ahhhh! Apologies for the misunderstanding. Unfortunately, I don't have the inclination to play games on Gayface.

Got my A4 and one of the bulbs went on the way home.....
At least I can nip down to halfrauds tomorrow and get one and fit it when I get home from work as it looks like a bit of a job
Might even look at the Xenon style bulbs actually as the standard ones seem quite weedy

http://www.powerbulbs.com/Osram Nightbreakers, or Philips X-treme Power. Far better than standard and inexpensive.

They don't overprice on Haynes manuals.... and it's a PITA to get a Haynes manual under RRP in general That and if they sell me bulbs that should fit and dont... I can take them straight back for a refund The Philips are £50 for my car  Neither site can tell me whether I need H4 or H7 bulbs either  _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

Just had a Masonic Lodge in for a function at work. They were installing a new lodge leader or something. All quite amusing. The wives went off to dine seperately while the fellas made passes at the waiting staff, were boorish and made several toasts to various people. Then, although not being allowed to be present for the ceremony we did stand and watch from behind some screens and in the window reflections. There was a lot gavels being knocked (in threes) and some hand clapping. And some saluting of one of another. All in all, very harmless. Although it was amusing having the conversation stop whenever I took food to a table. They don't even list the bulbs I need. H4651 and 4652, in case anyone's curious.

B5 is H4, B5.5 is H7. Of course you've got dual chamber lamps so to keep the colour temp the same, you'd need dipped AND main bulbs. I'm fortunate enough to have dual filament bulbs, which does make things cheaper!

So they are H7's I need? Might just get cheap ones then and just upgrade them to decent ones (apparently Xenons are illegal on mine as they aren't self levelling headlamps and they dont have washers) when I need to do them later _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.
