Parking lights.
I am trying to find out type of my parking lights. All I know, from my manual, is that they 12V and 5W.
Somebody told me that that they called 1157.
Could someone confirm that?
I am looking to replace stock ones with pure white.

Are you talking about the one right next to the low beam? If so, they are just wedge bulbs...5w/12v. For PIAA's, the 168 Wedge bulbs work, that is what I have. These are the same bulbs that are in the side marker lights, right next to the blinking light on the bumper housing. Hope this helps...

No.....no no no..those aren't the lights for us. I just went on Ebay and did a search...unless the 97 is different from the 98, which I doubt, the bulbs will not fit. Those lights look like the ones for our blinker bulb, but we need a plug in type for the blinker, not the screw in type.
You need to look for the wedge bulbs for the one next to the low beams

Yeah...those are not the right ones. I got mine from a local shop. Knew the guy working there at the time so he just gave them to me.. Do a search for Piaa Wedge. You shouldn't have to pay over...20 I think. Good Luck!

just curious about the wood trim - turns out that joshua tree wood trim is here in boulder so I've been wondering what this stuff looks like in our cars. actually, I dig the interior with just a min. of the stuff, but what the hell.
by the way, PIAA PA19168's match their platinum 9005's and 9006's perfectly. I'm still researching replacements to match for the rest of the bulbs in the car. I also want to order clear bumpers but want white blinkers to match all my PIAAs. you can get the wedges online for $12.50/pr and 9005/6 for $65/pr.
digital camera? funny you should mention it. I'm about to shop for one myself. my friends can't believe I'm a software guy and don't have one yet. probably the only one.
