I have a new Cayenne with the standard headlights. I am travelling to France shortly and want to carry spare headlight bulbs (H7). Anyone know what brand Porsche fit as standard?

Thanks

Surely something like this from B&Q will keep the French fuzz happy, not sure if the brand matters much!

Whilst this is helpful, it doesn't answer my question! Does anyone know which brand and what spec Porsche use? I'm guessing Bosch but would welcome confirmation.

Thanks

1. Take a bulb out.
2. Look at it.
3. Put it back in.

Solved, the Pistonheads way.

I was trying to save the effort given it's not that straightforward in the new Cayenne. I was hoping someone knew!

To save the effort completely just buy Phillips ones, they are probably the best.

Porsche do actually use Toshiba bulbs as OE on a lot of models........

Weird..........

My friendly OPC lent me a bulb kit for a recent trip to France, might be worth asking.
