Which headlight bulb do i need (picture enclosed)

[Shaunaudia3]

Hi, i know its probably been asked many times before, but i just want to make sure i get the right bulb for my a3.

The image attached is from on top of the light it self.

I have a feeling its a d3s bulb, but it does say 24w. which i take is 24 watts, but i can only see 35 att ones out there.

Cheers for any help given

Shaun

D3S is the xenon you need, ignore the wattage as that refers to other bulbs.

Thank you for that, now for the delight of forking out for it !!!!!

Been looking at D3S Osram Nightbreakers for mine but at £199 each, maybe not.

Have you guys tried site sponsor @t8ups for price on replacement bulbs?

6000k. Morimotos are very bright and white, from t8rups but not sure if they come in D3s. They are a bargain compared to the Osrams NB.

I got 2 Osram NB D1S bulbs for 70£ on fleybay, sure there was D3S ones for around 100£

You have to watch it buying off Fleabay there are loads of fake lamps for sale. What looks like a bargain may not be so much of a bargain after it dies after 6 months.

In the past when Ive tried 6000k they have been hopeless on wet bitumen roads etc.
Gone back to 4300k and visibility improves remarkably.
imo a better choice.

I got 2 x D1S from TPS for £55 inc vat. Don't know how much D3S are but maybe around the same.
