H7 is the size of the low beam bulbs, that's what you need.

You obviously didn't search hard enough. This took me about 3 seconds to find.

Again, if you would have searched more thoroughly, you would have found many posts stating that it is H7, not H4.

If I remember correctly (too lazy to go and look at my car right now), the bulb type is stamped into the headlight lens for future reference. There's a little "H7" moulded into the plastic near the bottom of the clear outer lens.

The high beams are H4, I believe, but I might be wrong...

High beams are H1.

Correct again. Wanna take a shot at the turn signal bulb while we're at it? :abovelol:

2357.

As for the difference between H4's and H7's...look at these pictures.

H4:

Notice the placement of the prongs.

H4's are also a dual element (hi/lo) bulb. So close on the t/s bulb. . . you forgot it's a NA, or amber bulb!

I stand (sit) corrected! H1 for High Beam it is!

Damn! At least I remembered the number..:)

I almost said 193..but those are for sidemarker/license plate lights.
