    GTI Bulbs

    Hey Guys,
    Just became the proud owner of a brand spanking new Carbon Steel GTI

    I want to change out the standard bulbs for Osram Coolblues but I can't seem to find what bulbs I need. Can anyone help me out with the type of bulbs I need for low beam/high beam/drls and fogs?

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    If you remove the stock bulbs they will have the style/type printed onto them.

    the low beams are H7 but the high beams are combined with the DRLs called H-15 (as far as I know, there isn't an after market bulb to replace that yet)

    In regards to the H15s I did find a conversion type thing for them. Looks a little dodgy but may work ok?

    Any tinting or slip-on will only diminish the light output.
    Reason H15 is hard to find is that it looks like this and only Osram makes it
