H1 for both dipped and main, 501's for sidelights, but i wouldnt use the sidelights, the rings are technically sidelights

those rings dont give off much light tho. is it illegal just to have those on?

no its not illegal. sidelights arnt meant to give light off like headlights

oh right ok. so i can just take them out then or just disconnect the wire from them. the halo s will look better as well then i suppose.

on handling them and putting the bulbs in. Can you touch them with bare hands? and do they just slot back in where the old bulbs went i presume

Can touch indicator bulbs and sidelights bulbs, just not halogens (headlight).

Also better just to remove the sidelight bulb, than cut/disconnect wiring.

i just cut the white wire going to the sidelights, as otherwise thered be a hole where the sidelight bulb was

dont touch the bulb glass with bare hands. they do actually blow wen u do that, as it happened to me. yeh they slot in the same place- u release the metal clip, then the bulb goes in one way, theres like a flat edge of the bulb metal bit thatll line up with a bit of the headlight. ull understand wen ur doing it
