Behind the seats lifting the panel, on the passenger side, reveals a very small area to store things away from prying eyes, phone, shades etc etc. There is also a tow hook and two halogen spare bulbs, one is an H9 65 watt (main beam if your car is not specced with HID)) and the other an H11 55 watt (dipped beam, useless like tits on a bull if HID fitted ) , Yes I know it`s boring but......if your abroad and both main beams expire , you`ll only have one spare bulb , so replace that H11 55 for an H9 65 before it`s too late.

I vote that`s the most boring post so far this year , anyone care to second that ? nerd

So are you saying that if you've got HID (like we all have) than the bulbs are no use whatsoever? Might aswell put them in the garage!

In any case, it's not a boring post; nice to know where the tow-hook is and I love little secret storage areas! I'm going to look now.

Thanks NFC, I feel vindicated, the H9 65 watt bulbs are good for main beam, remembering that the HID is only on dip,the H11 55 watt are the obsolete bulbs as long as you have HID .
