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 running with canbus errors until new ones come?

Also which are the most commonly used LED white bulb replacements? Lots of conflicts using the search function

Cheers

Decided to tackle it head on before work... Took the furthest to the wing, bulb out first... Daft sod, had I thought logically - that's where the headlight bulb is!!!!!

Anyway - inner bulb holder is perfectly within reach, and I have the H8 bulb in currently so off to look for the brightest bulb possible cheers
