H4 for the dip/beam. I have Nightbreakers in mine and they were much better than whatever was in there before

These H4's are what I looked at but amazon say it is not a match. Do they look the same?

H4's are the standard fit for 924/944/968, have fitted night breakers to my 924, and huge difference in brightness .

Methinks Amazon's checking system is full of it. I have no idea why they don't like your S2. If I put MY S2's reg number in, they say it fits.

This is actually true as Nightbreaker H4s are what I have in my 944 S2.

They are excellent value and add much needed extra lighting with literally zero fuss or modding of wiring looms. Will add mine still going strong after 6 years. A contender for best tenner ever spent!

Well. Got my new bulbs in. When putting the rubber boot back on one of the lenses I felt a thud, further investigation revealed one of the plastic cup holder things ( thst the lense pivots on) had disintegrated. Presumably it had gone brittle with time. Is this common and are they available anywhere? As my electical tape bodge to stop the lense vibrating doesn't cut the mustard.
