Thanks for posting.

It definitely still has errors.


The bulb guide is NOT created by sylvania.. One company creates the bulb guide for every single lighting company and sells it, there are MANY errors in the guide due to car manufactures changing things but not updating the main guide.

So the person who compiles the list doesn't know unless you actually see the bulb in the car.

We have a bulb guide we are editing to reflect changes and we are still finding it is not always right so we have a "model specific" sub-category for the change we found.

Our bulb guide/new site will be up next year - keep an eye out.

No, DRL are typically the headlights or LED.

For my 2012 halogen they are neither. When the DRL's are on and I switch the headlights on they DRL's turn off and the headlights turn on.

I just want to know what I need to replace all my lights on the front of my car lol. City lights and driving lights still makes no sense to me. Low beams, high beams, DRL's, fogs and turn signals.

Low beam headlamp = H7

High beam headlamp/DRL = H15

Front turn signal = 5202 amber

City Light = 194

To clear up any confusion, the high beam H15 bulb is dual filament. So when the DRL is on, the lower filament is on in the high beam bulb. Once you turn the switch to turn on your normal low beams, the H7 bulb comes on along with the city light. If you were to instal a euro switch and trigger wire, the city lights would be on in the position between lights off (DRL) and low beams on, this would also allow you to run your fog lights with just the city lights; the tail lights are also on in this position.

I was wondering the same thing about what bulb was which. Now it’s all so clear. Thanks for the pic! Much appreciated.:thumbsup:
