Hi guys, just registered on this forum, and i am in need of some help with getting the name of my bulbs in the headlights right, i have a 15 reg cdti 2.0 ecoflex sri ss 140hp vauxhall insignia. A nice improvement over a 04 renault laguna, 10 years with the laguna and not one bit of trouble with her, a really good car, this insignia though is light years ahead with its comfort and tech, but one place where it falls down is the headlight bulbs, they are really dreadful, compared to the laguna, and from reading other comments on this section, many other owners have found the same. the high beams are even worse, my insignia has a projector style headlight with one bulb dual filament, the reason i know this is, i can not see the bulb through the glass, the vauxhall handbook does not say what type bulb i need to get a replacement.
I am fairly sure it is a HIR 2 9012 bulb, if it is, this is where i am having trouble, searching for this type of bulb does not say whether it is single filament or dual filament, especially when looking at LED bulbs, take one out and have a look i hear you say, i tried to, but the connection was a bit tough to separate, and i do not want to damage it with brute strength, i would like to have the replacement bulb ready to go.
Has anyone changed this specific type of bulb for an LED set, and do you have Hi and Low beams with the LED replacement, most of the ads on Amazon and Ebay for HIR 2 LEDs do not say if they are Hi and Low beam. This is of coarse assuming that i actually have HIR 2 bulbs fitted to my insignia, any help guys would be welcome.
