Technical 500 headlight bulb.

[loserscar]

Seems like an idiotic question, but my newish 500 is parked some way away with a blown headlamp bulb.

I haven't found anything online, that explains the bulb situation.

It seems that there's a dipped bulb, and a beam bulb (and a sidelight).

So a H1 or a H2 has blown ??

What I thought was the headlamp looks to have a headlamp bulb, plus a sidelight ??

So what's in the daylight lamp?

And what do I need for the larger headlamp above?

I'm used to just buying a headlamp bulb.

I wouldn't mind getting a spare bulb and fuse pack if anyone can recommend one (orange indicator bulb?)

Cheers, Pete

I've just had to replace my Fiat 500 headlight bulb tonight. I think it's your fullbeam bulb that's within the headlight part as tonight when my headlight didn't work, the fullbeam still did. Mine was just from Halfords 477 H7 for like £10

The main beam is H1 - 55W and the DRL/sidelight is a dual filament W21/5W. These are both in the lower, smaller light housing.
The dipped beam is H7 - 55W in the upper headlight and the indicator is a WY21W orange bulb in the top of the upper headlight.

Thanks, people.

You've helped a simple minded man join the 21st century.

It should be obvious during your weekly L and L check...
