Hey guys just bought some new bulbs for my headlights and I'm not sure they're the right ones. I have a 2002 rx with the facelift headlights. I have a set of H4 bulbs and a set of H7 bulbs with parkers. Old mate who sold them to me said the H4s were for the low beam top bulbs and the H7s were for the high beams below. The H4s have a 3 prong connection and the H7s have a 2 prong connection. After pulling the cover off it looks like the lows are a 2 prong and the highs are a single prong on the original headlights? Have I got the right bulbs at all? Any help is much appreciated :) Cheers

H7 for highs
H1 for low

If you went to Supercheap for the bulbs the listing is wrong

I'd say most shops use the same system

Yeah the h7 is right

Just go back and swap the h4's for h1's
Not a bad idea to pull the old bulb out just to confirm but I'm certain it's a h1 they are a single prong bulb

Ah okay sweet haha. So the looking at the light from the front, the top should be the H7 and the bottom should be a H1? And then I can use the parkers with them :)

Sorry Supercheap Wob,

But H7 is for the low beam & H1 is the high beam.

I'm old so you know I'm correct.
