All depends on the age of the car ! Early RRS1 had D2S bulb and later facelift cars like mine have D3S bulbs so might help if you state age and L320 or L494 ! 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

Should be a D2s xenon bulb then. Quit often an idea to change both as could end up with 2 different colours if not the same bulb spec 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

The type of bulb (D2S etc, H7 etc) is moulded in to the top of the headlight plastic. You can read it when you open the bonnet. Easy to check and avoid buying the wrong bulbs. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Yeah sorry that’s what I meant, I took the light out earlier and the bulb is an osram xenarc 4300k so I’m thinking of replacing with the new osram night breaker |

The only issue with the nightbreaker, it makes your other lights (sides and corner) look very yellow. The nightbreakers are good but have a blue tinge. I fitted them to my previous RRS when one of my lights went pink. MY12 RRS HSE
