Default headlight bulb question... ??

i was wondering which type of bulb size do i need for the light bulb next to the main one which is the 9006 bulb type.

i found this thread but dont know if its the h3 or 1157A or 168

any help would be appreciated i also tried to take it out today but wouldnt twist out and my attempt was fail! if there is a special way it would be nice

i bought some 9006 hids from ddm but didnt notice i needed another set for bulb next to them cause it looks wierd

a good bulb to put in there (parking light-168) would be like a hyper white LED so you can have the brightness your looking for to go along with the HID's

something along those lines would look good

is this the first time you're taking off that bulb? if so, be prepared for your fingers to be in pain for a while. iirc, they do come out with a twist, you just have to brute force it. as for the bulb type, they're just 194 wedges. I have insanely bright single led's that my friend hooked me up with and couldn't be happier.
