   Elllo
   
   I'm having a blonde moment.
   Basically I'm about top order some bulbs to replace the OEM ones in my ZS.
   The High Beam is H1
   With Dipped Beam a H7
   
   Now I've found a set of Osram night breakers that come in both H7 and H1 fittings.
   Can I buy both sets and fit them, or Do I need to find a different set for dipped beam?
   In other words, fitting both sets wont mean two sets of full beams.
   Its the Lens on the headlight that make the high/low beam right?
   
   I pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I've convinced myself otherwise
   Like if you keep saying the same word over and over it sounds wrong lol.
   
   
   Help!

   It's fine. You'll find that the main beam bulb (if it was the same bulb type as a dip beam bulb) is upside down. This flips the beam pattern over.
   
   Be warned, there are a lot of FAKE osrams in the internet.

   buy the ones specified for each beam, theres no difference in lamps i.e. one set should only be for high/dipped and vice versa
