H7 Main Beam
H7 Full Beam

H11 or 9006 depending on your year of car for the fogs

side lights are ordinary W5W bulbs

the philips xtreme bulbs are pretty good, pretty sure theres a review of them in the reviews section of the forum  :happy2:

you'd need two pairs

one pair for your main beam and one pair for your low beams, so two packs


welcome to the forums.lol

Check out my thread about bulb options pal, lots of decent opinions/reviews on there from a range of people.

However the basic verdict is Phillips extreme visions as you had already thought of or the Osram nightbreakers,  personally have the Osrams and swear by them - cheaper option of the two if your on a budget also.

MTECS seem to be gauging alot of negative vibes from people on here, so I would steer clear of them.
