i was told H3, main, H7 high, & 9005 for the fogs!
well i ordered some H3's & H7 and well the H3 don't fit!!!!! the white conecting power socket is too big, the prongs from the bulb are too close together to fit!

can some one, (who has installed new bulbs!) please respond with the correct size's for the MP5 light set up!!!

many, many thnks in advance!!

bulbs

I tried conducting a search, but to no avail. so i thought i'd ask & get soem 1st hand knowledge.

regarding the headlight, the low beams, you are talking about the outer bulb, the one covered buy the rubber boot? with the white female plug? because the H7 bulbs i have don't fit! the prongs (male end) of the bulb, are spaced closer together, than either the stock bulbs or the female part of the white plug! so they don't fit! this is what is totally confusing me, and why i was asking someone who had themselves actually installed new bulbs!

many thnkas again for any & all help!

For the P5 they should be;

Low beam - H7
High beam - 9005
Fog lamp - H3 (95% sure)
Parking - 1157A
Turn signal - 1157A
Tail lamp - 7443
Stop lamp - 7443
Side marker - 168


-edit- If I could read I would have seen nightowl already had it listed...

My question is what's up with the 7443 bulb. It looks exactly like a 3157 but they don't interchange (I wanted LEDs but the don't come in 7443...thanx Mazada )
