Question parking lightbulb size?

Hey guys, I was just wondering what the bulb size for the parking lights are. The ones below our turn signals in the front. They look like either 921, 194, 168, or 158. But I have no idea how to tell the difference since they're all wedge shaped bulbs. Please help, since I need new ones. Thanks!

They are actually all the same bulbs and you can use either one. They are generally referred to as T10 bulbs.

already checked that thread, and the osram sylvania website, and i know it's wrong because 1157 bulbs are a lot bigger and are not wedge shaped, but round. the parking lights/emergency lights are either 921 or 168 i believe. just trying to figure out which one. but after doing some research, it seems as if both 921 or 168/158/194 would fit.

The bulb base & size may be the same but the wattage is probably different if the numbers do not match. Be sure to check that.
