Headlight bulb replacement .. .help!
I'm trying to replace the headlight bulb in my E class.
The low and highs were replaced with the H7 high intensity bulbs
does anyone know what the bulb type is for the light bulb that sits below the high beam?
this turns on normally and is turned off when high beam is on.
this is on the small inner lights in the front of the car.
thanks

Small bulb
If your talking about the small standing light (parking light) , they are hard to find. I looked everywhere and finally drove to a M-B dealer , more than an hour each way and paid $2.50 each for them. The parts man told me they had been $10 each in the past. I wonder? There are other bulbs that will fit but I think they get to hot and actually melted the socket in my wife's 240D. She won't let me use cheap bulbs anymore. Big Ron

That bulb is called the H6W. You will not find them at Auto Parts stores. Probably only dealer.
It does not turn off with hig beams. The high beam just is brighter and found in the same housing. Only the fog lights below the W210 E-Class bumper goes out with high beams.

Has anyone ever been able to find these H6W bulbs with a yellow output?
I currently have the Philips Blue Vision bulbs and their side marker 194 style bulbs, but they look like regular halogen bulbs....
