Replacing bulbs

Hello all, I have a 2007 ES petrol auto and looking to replace the sidelights and low beam lights - are they difficult to replace?

No, remove caps and replace like for like. No trouble 20 minute job for all four bulbs.

Relatively easy in the petrol models. Just be thankful you haven't got a diesel lol.

Thanks for the replies! Doing a search on autobulbsdirect, they say its H1 for dipped beams and 501 for sidelights, are they correct?

501 for the sidelights, H7s for the dipped beams. H1s are for the main beams.

Autobulbs say its H1 for both main and dipped beams! I couldnt see the bulb type in the manual either!

It is 100% H7 lowbeam, H1 highbeam.

I sell enough of them on this site to be confident in saying that.
