Help identifying headlight bulb type please
Wondering whether the combined wisdom of the forum can help identify what the bulb type is in this headlight please? - advert mentions LED in the title but not the description.
Thanks in advance

Thanks - H11 is what I was thinking but I guess my question should have been has anyone seen this before & specifically as an LED fitment? H11 is not the standard bulb for dipped beam on a D4 halogen headlight, that should be H7 like the main beam in the photo.
Reason I was asking is I would like to replace my halogens with something a bit 'cleaner' & longer lasting & was hoping there'd be an LED upgrade I could use.D4 - Stornoway Grey

I have just had a dipped bulb blow and was expecting it to be an H7 the same as the high beam, however when I removed the headlight I found the dipped beam to be a xenon bulb which was an eye watering £39 each to replace The best price I found was Amazon some places were asking double this price!!
it looks like the LED conversion has used the H11 connection to keep the depth of the new arrangement within the standard housing. seems sensible thing to do.
as for your "problem" Fireburst ... I wish mine had been Xenons when I opened them. they are sooooo much brighter than the halogens, no matter how much you upgrade to brighter ones. They will also last a few years ... I get about 12 months out of halogens IF I'm lucky..
