its made 09/2005. i think its the one circled below as it says quantity 2 per headlight on real oem and they are called 5w longlife bulb but no model given so not 100% sure.
they look like those really small 501 bulbs. one for each halo so 4 in total.

well i googled the bulb part number - 63217160797

and found this thread, where others used 194 and 501 style bulbs. it looks to be just a standard wedge bulb.
