If you have halogen, I'm not sure which bulb is it.

Check out Sylvania's website, they have a comprehensive list although it is not always 100% accurate. Low beam xenons will be D2S for the pre-08 models. Your car has bixenons so the lows and highs are the outer xenon beam, the inner beam is an H7.

theres always one... 
first place i looked, take your own advice and check there yourself youll find that it says for xenons you need to be serviced at the dealer.
thanks for the help tho
ok so the Im seeing D2S and D1S for replacement so im not sure which it is. i thought it was D1S and the H7 is a halogen beam for the highs along with the shutter for the D1S to creat the high. im confused haha. so order a D2S and a H7 halogen to replace both high an low? i could have sworn i say what looked like a silver ignition box inside where the bulb would go, isnt that D1S?

The Pre-LCI cars used a D2S bulb, the post-LCI use a D1S so that's why Sylvania lists both.
they had lci models in 07? i thought that was just for 08+
