Headlight washers and projector mean you have standard Xenons.

You can just about see the grey cap on the H7 main beam bulb in the inner light, not a 1156 DRL bulb.

Thanks guys, I think the consensus is that I have the standard zenons? Really appreciate the assistance, cheers.

Now I need to figure out how many of the bulbs I can upgrade / replace with LEDs!
