Audi B8.5 (facelift) halogen bulb replacements

    Sorry if wrong category.

    I'm looking to change the yellow looking halogen lights on my 13 A4.

    I've been on google and YouTube all day and still haven't found the amount of bulbs I need for the headlight. Do I need a H7 & H1 for each light (dipped and main beam) or just a single/pair of H7s for each?

    I know I need a p13w for the DRL and H11s for the fog lights.

    Any help greatly appreciated

    If I remember correctly my B8 A4 used a dual filament bulb. If you can, take your headlight bulb out and if there's two filaments within the one bulb then it's probably one H7 for dipped and high beam. If there's only one filament then you'd have separate bulbs for dipped and high beam, hope this helps

    Update, just did a quick Google. I'm incorrect on the above. H7 are only single filament, with h4 being dual but they are different fittings. I would just remove the bulbs from the car so you know you're buying the correct ones first time

    I'd imagine so yes, for one for each dipped beam
