    Lowbeams are 9006s. Fogs are H7s. As a result of my projector retrofit, err, project, I have a stockpile of Sylvania and Phillips 9005s, 9006s and even a spare H7.

    This is where im confused many uk sites have the z3 low beams as h7.

    I know the us specs says 9006/hb4 for lowbeams, but does 9006 US = h7 UK?

    I recall reading the owner's manual and it stated H1s. Then I bought H1s and turned out the fogs actually used H7s.

    I believe only US-spec cars use 9006/9007.

    9006 not = to H7

    Looking at a UK site will only show euro-spec headlights using H7s.
