Which headlamp bulb

I want to upgrade my headlamps with better bulbs but which do I need?
Everywhere I look suggests that it is H7 but the handbook says H11 Rolling Eyes

2011 XS with halogen headlamps

It's raining so I thought I'd ask on here rather than get wet Whistle

Disco sport 2016 HSE
FL2 2011 XS gone
Disco3 2005 Tdv6 SE gone
Disco2 2000 Td5 ES gone

H11 dipped and H7 main beam. Early manuals were wrong.

Scotland 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 GS Auto Fuji White

Some owner handbooks were printed with wrong bulb specifications.
2010 pre facelift had 4 x H7
2011 facelift with projector lamps have 2 x H7 and 2 x H11

Halfords uprated bulbs have been the best. My opinion. All FL2's (3) Gone
2011 Mercedes C180 CGI Gone
FL2 GS Auto SD with heated leather, factory tints, alloy spare and a few other bits.

I'm new to freely ownership and having just sold a disco3 with HID headlamps I'm finding these are not
quite as good! Whistle

I've used updated Ring bulbs before and found them good but any opinions are welcome Thumbs Up It better to laugh than cry
