Default Head Light Bulbs?

Whilst still waiting for owners manual, could anyone please tell me what bulb types a 993 has in the mail headlights, seems to be an H1 for the high beam and can't see the regular beam. I know I could take them out and check but wanted to get the correct ones before removing inner guard.

Also will these headlight units take 130 watt for the highs and 100 watt for the low beam?

Tks

Doesn't your TT come with factory litronics? And in any case if not I wouldn't put in 100 watt low beams.

Litronic is Bosch's version of Hid (Xenon), Bosch also makes the headlight assembles so Porsche decided to keep the name.

A 55 Watt H1 high beam should be enough, and you might as well clean the reflector and the lens.
