They are H6 bulbs, for replacements may I suggest John (brabusw209amg) he is a great vendor and well respected. Good luck

Ah thanks for that, because someone else said they were 9006/HB4 bulbs and I got confused.

What year is your car? Without that info it's hard to say what bulbs.

I believe you got it right the first time. I have the same year as well and I think it's 9006. My 2cents...

Crap, whoever told you that was right - I was looking at the wrong bulb, sorry. ( I was looking at the "care" pkg John sent me and I replaced almost every bulb with that one. My fault

sylvania suck! LOL Always have the wrong info.

pre-LCI e60s ALL have 9006/HB4 fog lights. HB4 is 9006. It's the same thing but some people like calling it HB4.

LCI non sport bumpers have H8 fog lights

LCI sport bumpers have 9006/HB4
