It's got a pigtail on it, a lot of H1's have a straight Lucar terminal.

I think yu will find its a 453 55w H3 bulb, although it could be a 483 100w

its a H11 then

The Mad Hat Man · Jan 19, 2010

not with a pigtail - an H11 is similar to a 9005/6 and has a moulded in connector block.

the H3 is the light with pigtail..

martinhollings · Jan 19, 2010

yes but he said its a late d2 and they have h11 bulbs fitted

The Mad Hat Man · Jan 19, 2010

h11 fog lights?

unusual, but not impossible. Maybe we might find out when (or if) he comes back

Facelift Disco 2's have the little round spotlights, very similar to the Renault Trafic and Vauxhall Vivaro vans, and they do have the moulded connector on the bulb.

Pre-2002 vehicles have the pigtail on the bulb.

MHM it's the first light bulb on your diagram....that's in with a connector block attached, I take it it's a H11 then is it, still can't find these in Halfords!

The Mad Hat Man · Jan 20, 2010

they do sell them - its not an HB5/6 (9005/6) but a 711 at £11.99ea.
If yu want to save a bit of money - get it in the motorcycle section

Hey thanks guys for your help, once again you never fail me.

listerdiesel · Jan 20, 2010

It's amazing how many variants have been thrown up while looking for a basic bulb!

We've got some 9005 HB3 bulbs here, they are used on the Astra 2003 with separate bulbs for high and dip beams.

They are VERY similar to the facelift Disco bulbs, but there's a slight difference between the 9005 and the 9005/6.

The Mad Hat Man · Jan 20, 2010

yup
i cant remember which is which but of the 9005/6 arrangement, one is used as dipped beam and the other as high beam.
you can tell the difference, by looking into the connector housing - there are locating pips moulded in to the housing and they are different between the 9005 and 9006. I think the 9005 has two pips, not sure on the 9006 off the top of my head.

Landybandy · Jan 25, 2010

Yeah you were rite a 711, and the pips in the connector block are closer together, thats the difference between the 2006 and 2005. Cheers guys.
