7 inch round will be using H4 60/55w as standard. Hope you got a quality insert. My advice on bulbs is to use a quality product such as Philips or Osram ( these are the leaders in bulb manuf) and if possible ones made in Europe. Many of the Chinese and esp Indian bulbs are inferior. Standard bulbs work just fine and higher wattage are another way of extracting some more money from your pocket. Claims about twice the light on high wattage bulbs etc are essentially wrong and relate to measurements taken at specific points.
