Default Headlight bulbs + fogs

Hey guys.,

I recently purchased a new IS 250 and I'm new on this forum. I tried searching through the forums to see if i can find the answer to my questions, and i kinda did. But now i cant seem to find the thread anymore. Any ways here is my dilemma:

My car is equipped with the HID 4300K headlights. but when the head lights are turned on at night there is a small bulb on the top corner of the projector which illuminates yellowish. I want to change this bulb but I'm not 100% sure what type of bulb it is. My guess was 168 or T10 from what i read.

Second problem is my day time running lights. is it the same bulb as top?

I apologize if this question has already been posted, i tried to search but wasn't 100% sure.

Thank you very much for your time.

correction.

the DRL's are the high beams running at half power. iirc, those are 9005.

the top one in the same housing is a 168 bulb.

if you need help with any other bulbs, check this replacement guide search result @ sylvania.com.

Ok now that we have the right bulb type out of the way, Is there a thread which shows how to replace fog lights, High Beams and the 168 bulb?

Thanks,
