2010 Bravo with standard lights

What are the bulbs for the dipped and full beam headlights? The manual says H1 for both but halfords.com says H1 and H7 :confused:

Looking to get Halfords Ultra Brilliance or Osram Nightbreakers as the standard bulbs are light having 2 candles light the way!
 
Thanks for the speedy reply. Already changed the sidelight bulbs :)

I found another thread which suggested unclipping the washer bottle neck to give more room at the passenger side. Does the neck of the bottle lift out completely or do you just try and swing it out the way?
 
you swing it out of the way and get a double jointed trained midget to the change the bulb !!

Beware of the earth lead to the dipped beam unit, it's easy to remove and you will get loads of splinters trying to work out why it's not working - been there, done that, too fat for the t shirt :D

You lift the washer bottle neck out completely. Personally, i don't think its anywhere near as difficult as some people think it is on here, one of the easiest cars to change headlights on iv'e come across (and i change them on many cars daily). Maybe my engines a different layout or something. Agreed though that the drivers side is easier with better access and that if the earth lead comes loose and you don't see where it came from, you can be a while figuring out where it goes lol :)
