Bulbs, what's the setup?

I have xenon lows, what's the ticket for the running (inner/parking) lights and fog light bulbs? That dim yellow stuff has got to go. Can someone suggest a particular brand or vendor so I can make sure there are some that won't trip the monitor? Also, did I see that some company has an upgrade interior bulb? Anyone using them? Thanks for your help.

seems like Stealth was offering aftermarket bulbs for the MB vehicles.

what brand are you using?

So I need a 9006 for the fogs, and what for the parking lights, 2825? What should I pay for them?
