Daytime running light question

I have a 2011 135i M-Sport with HID headlights. I'm looking to buy the LUX H8 V5 Angel Eyes and wanted to replace the daytime running lights with some white/blueish bulbs but am having a hard time determining which type of bulbs I should buy. Are they H7 like the headlights?

Thanks in advance.

Personally I wouldn't change the AE bulbs bc if you read the forums... most members experience headlight failures shortly after installing new bulbs or HID kits. Btw... each headlight costs about $1K to replace.
