Go for "Osram Nightbreakers". Easy enough to replace (even easier with headlamps out). Careful though.....if you`re adjusters are on the verge of breaking.....they will

Assuming you haven't got xenon lights fitted the bulb size is H7
Several people including myself have fitted Osram Nightbreakers.
Other members disagree with my choice but at the end of the day the choice is yours.

As said.....I`d be inclined to remove the light unit. The time it takes to faff about with the lights in situ you can have both done and re-fitted within 15 minutes

What condition are the headlight lenses in?
A good polish with some paint cutting compound seriously improved the output from my xenon lights...
