Question H7 or H11 bulbs for Fog Light?

Hi all,

I recently changed out my luxury C300 bumper to a Sport/AMG bumper. I ordered OEM fog lights and wanted to know if I should be using the original luxury type of bulbs, H11, or the Sport H7? I assume that the connections are the same, but maybe the way they sit in the fog light are different?

So, which do I get? I assumed H7 (Sport) ones, right?

If your bumper comes with the sport fogs I'm guessing you'd use h7 bulbs. Not sure if the luxury connectors are different or not. Might be worth a call to your local dealership just to make sure. Worst case you need to buy the sport h7 connectors. Also might need the bulb holders unless they come with your new fogs

If you're switching to sport fogs then you need h7. You will need to change your h11 connector to h7.
