Hella Headlight LED bulb

Anyone running the Hella headlights know what type of bulb it uses for the small (DRL?) LED? I've had my Hella Headlight for a few years now and never connected that additional bulb. I want to purchase a yellow bulb to put in there to run during the day for looks.

I think that was the headlight if I'm not mistaken. There's no information on the website to what the bulb is.

The link I posted also has 2 bulbs on each headlight. I can see it in the pictures but it doesnt list the bulb type. I'll have to remove my headlight to take a picture of the bulb. Maybe there's a marking on the bulb that says what it is.

most bulbs have a marking, maybe all? the main bulb is an H4 for sure

Yeah, I got the H4's in. I went out to quickly pull the small bulb out but it's being blocked in by the lens bracket thing so I'll have to unscrew the headlight to get it out - I'll do that later today.

I've had great luck with the GE LED plug and play housing.

Here is the bulb

Upon reading it, it looks like it says 12V 14W 37R ? Is that what I search for when I look for a replacement bulb?

EDIT: Upon Googleing, "BA9s" comes up and that looks like the right bulb!
