SLK 200 KOMPRESSOR 2001
Can't Find The Right Bulbs. Help:(

Hello everyone, I have an SLK 200 KOMPRESSOR 2001 model. I changed the H7 bulbs it had and put some bulbs that look like HID. My problem is when I turn the
lights on in the smallest scale the bulbs that light up are not the H7's but another small bulb. Does anybody know what this bulb is called so I can replace it? Somebody told me that they are 9006 but that is not correct because the 9006 are huge; however the 9006 are for the fog lights. I know that they are LED but not what type. If anybody knows please tell me. Thank you.

Your location claims USA but the model car you drive was never sold in the US.

are those the tiny daytime running lights? in the E320, they share the
reflector with the H7 high beam. check out H6W, or W6W - first is bayo
base and the 2nd is wedge base.
