So I believe. If you put your headlights on and check which bulbs are on then stick main beam on you will see the H7 bulbs come to life. I found the bulb i needed in a post by your goodself stating which bulbs were which.

They aren't mega life changing but for £20 they are a cheap upgrade.

Cool. Will definitely get some then. Will have to see if they are the same in the M3.

Shop, if you can get some PlastX or simiar to sort the headlight covers that should help hugely because the brand new units I have are great. I am considering not bothering to reinstall the extra set of HIDs and getting the uprated H7 bulb instead.

My lenses are in pretty much perfect nick since the car has always slept indoors.

I wonder if headlight lenses are still clear varnished like they used to be and what the abrasive stuff does to that.
