Help what lights have I got in my discovery 3

Click image to enlarge

HI one of my bulbs is going pink I looked on line and it says this is a sign that the bulb is going to fail.
So I looked on this fantastic forum and then got totally confused.
My discovery has the fish eye lens but I'm not sure if it's a halogen or an led or a hid.
Is zeon the same as hid?
Do I need a h7 or h8 or a d2s and then which one night breaker Philips or osram 4300k or 5000k or 6000k and they range from £125eurocarparts each to 80 the pair AF now just seen a load on amazon for a tenner............

Here is a photo off the top of the light I have looked inside and can see a lot of silver cables and the bulb also how do I get it out.

Help please Embarassed

Iirc std is 4300 and the higher you go the bluer they are and the more of a knob you look Mr. Green
The cheap ones from ebay etc work but are far from perfect

Pretty much the same as any other bulb, access the light unit at the back, disconnect the power lead and swap the bulb out. Wink

There are a lot of cheap rubbish xenon bulbs about. 1 pair I bought would just turn off after 20 seconds. I bought a pair of these in the end and they are great. And good value
