99 Spec Foglight and Combo Light Bulb Question

Does anyone know what kind of Light Bulb is used in the 99 Spec Foglights and on the Inner ( NOT TURN SIGNAL) Light of the 99 Spec Combo Lights? Thanks in advance.

They're all the wedge style bulbs, 55w for the fogs. Park lights, 5w for the inner, 21w for the outer.

Thanks for the information guys. You guys wouldn't happen to know the codes for the bulbs would ya ?? My foglights came with one White Light Bulb and the other is the stock yellow/amber Light bulb so I am planning to go with the same wattage but same color in both foglights. As for the inner lights in the combo housing, The lights look very very dim and was thinking of going with the same wattage as the turn signals. Problem is that I do not know the code (H3, H4, 9006 etc etc) so that I can buy the replacement bulbs. Any information is highly appreciated.

Can't offer any suggestion on the replacement bulbs...other than showing the existing one to your favoured outlet, not much work involved I would have thought.

If you're planning replacing the inner one with the guard blinker globe, it's the same output.

What is a guard blinker globe ?? BTW, the reason I was asking for the Type of bulb is because I am going to have to remove the Front Bumper Skin Assembly, to then remove the foglights, then open them since they are the sealed type, and the go to Discount Auto. If I knew the type of bulb, I can purchase the bulb first and hang on to it until I have the time to remove the assembly and not run the risk of leaving the job half way done if they dont have the necessary bulb, or not have the sufficient time to rebuild everything again.

The inner Bulbs in the combo light have the plug exposed and is much simpler to exchange, in the other hand.

Looks like a terminology divide

Guard=fender
Blinker=flashing indicator

So the indicator aft of the front wheel well shares the same globe as the inner combo light. For reference, the outer is the same as the reversing light. The fog is shared with nothing else.

Not being totally au fait with these new fangled wedge bulbs, the number of watts seems to dictate it's size and that of the holder, I'd expect the spare parts person could tell if 55w is only available in one size.
