Which AE bulb

Is there a sure fire way to determine which bulbs my May '07 E70 will be using for its angel eyes? H8 or the twin spoke ones? It looks like a mega naughty job to get the old ones out so, ideally want to get the old one out and new ones in straight away, rather than pulling the old ones out and ...

Re: ANOTHER battery issue

Been quoted £275 by BM to supply, fit & code... Insane.
Bought Bosch S5 for £105 and Indy to code it in - £155 total.

I'm now looking to have the tarnished aluminium on the side steps painted all with my wheels in anthracite... Is the aluminium part just bonded on and pop the rubber grips out?
