Hello, very inexperienced SC owner here. Got a 98 with about 240k and a lowbeam headlight bulb is on its very last legs. I ordered a Sylvania 9005 Xtravision off ebay but am finding that it is not slotting in properly like the old bulb did.

Do I need a 9006 for the lowbeam and is a 9005 for the highbeams?

ELI5 please, I know jack about cars, and really appreciate your time.

The reason why your 9005 headlight bulb doesn't work because 9006 is lowbeam bulb size. 9005 is high beams.

Thank you very much, my mistake. Will order a 9006 right now.
