High/low beams:

Halogen - H7
Xenon - D1S

Fog lights - H8 for base, H11 for m sport. So in your case, H8

Just a reminder that non-LED housings aren't designed for LED bulbs, so you will likely be blinding other drivers if you swap to LED high/low bulbs. Addtionally, you'll need to make sure the LED has the proper resistor to prevent flashing on start up (and throwing a code), or just code out start up bulb check.

He should be fine. Its most blinding when vehicles have the reflector lens over the projector. I dont think the f10s have reflectors.
