Question Philips Vision Plus H1, H3, H4, H7

Does anyone know what type is a direct replacement for headlights and foglights on a 4th gen? For those that did , is there any difference vs stock?

Cool, thanks for the reply. I heard Silverstars are really good but Philips Vision Plus are a little better. Do you know what type (H1, H3, H4, H7) though? Thanks.

I have vision plus headlights, and they are a little better than stock, though not as much as i had hoped. if they ever burn out, i'll have to try silverstars. regarding bulb type, the owner's manual should tell you what size bulb fits in the headlights, foglights. I'm sure someone else can chime in though if you can't find it. For 3rd gens, the headlights are H4s and the stock fogs are H3s, but it might not be the same for 4th gens.

Kevin444 said it right, they are not H1,3,4, or 7, they are 9006 and 9005. These are different lights altogether. I run the silverstars as my lowbeams and the phillips as my high beams, so I can't really compare, but I know that the phillips high beams are much brighter than my stock ones. The silverstar lowbeams are not that much brighter, just whiter and cause things to reflect back better.
I bought mine from here:

They were friendly and quick, as well as decently priced.

Oh yeah, 4th gens have separate low/high beams, so they wouldn't be using H4s.

As far as I have searched, they do not have the Vision Plus for the 9005/9006 headlamps.
I have the Philips Premium and while they are a tiny bit whiter than stock, they are not any brighter.
