Front foglamp bulb fitment

teddyk · Oct 25th, 2021, 14:09

Hi all,

Hoping someone can help.
Looking to replace my front foglamp bulbs, but seeing conflicting info on various websites.
I have a 2009 reg (2010 MY according to Vida) D5 with Active Bi-Xenon headlights.
My user manual says foglamp is H1, powerbulbs and some other sites are saying H3. Amazon is telling me that H1 is incompatible.
Can anyone definitively say what fitment I should be purchasing?

Thanks,
teddyk.

I have just ordered H1 bulbs for mine, i'll let you know if they fit. I think they are the right ones.

Take the existing bulb out; the h1 and h3 differences will be immediately evident.

Quick update:
I can confirm they're H1.
Ordered and fitted pretty easily.
Didn't have to jack up the car to get at them.
