Default Cee'd Bulb Types

Hi does anyone know what are the bulb types/sizes for the Cee'd because I want to replace the front side lamps and rear tail lights with LEDs and the low beam with HID. I would really appreciate if someone who knows for sure what the bulb sizes are lists them for me and all the users.

Cheers.

H7 low beam, H1 high beam.
W5W the "minimums" (good luck replacing them... I simply can't reach them!)

How about the [flashing] indicator bulps in front and rear, I want to change mine to not orange coloured but still shine orange. I know the need of taken away the hole package to do that.

Don't this it's possible!
In the front, the bulb has a cover that gives the orange color.

Yes, they do exist, I have seen "Philips Silver Vision", but they are very expensive.

I have similar bulbs on my Corsa ("invisible" front repeaters), but the Cee'd is different! It's not the bulb that is orange, it's a plastic cover!
Look closely!

Nope, they are PY21W bulbs, where Y means yellow. So the bulbs are yellow coloured, and the glass of the optical block is clear.
