Is this the correct part for the lights?

I replaced my existing headlight bulbs with Sylvania Ultra Night Vision and night time driving is now better. I am looking to replace the parking light (the ones next to the headlights) but I am not sure which of these from Sylvania website is the correct one. Does that light share the same bulb as the Fog Light? Does anyone know?

if you're referring to the dim light which shares the enclose with the
H7 high beam, chances are high that the small bulb is an H6W with
a bayonet base. If this has been modified eg you swapped out the
light to a Depo type projector light, the 'city light' may be an W5W
or H5W or some such.

The Sylvania site is where I got my info. No this is stock. I am referring to the first light that you turn on before the headlight. I think that's called the parking light or here from Sylvania site is driving light but not sure. I don't see anything resembling that at the site, and I don't see any H6W either.

The little h6w

It is one of the few bulbs that the dealer sells for less then most of the other suppliers that normally have them beat by a mile(go figure).
If you have the stock set up,polish the lenses
How To: Polish Fogged Over Headlights - Car Care Forums: Meguiar's Online Archive
and then go to danielsternlighting and get the 65 watt h7 rally bulbs,light up the road like a lighthouse beacon,and he has the selective yellow h1 bulbs for the fogs.Saved my life one time in our little MGB racer.So I can highly recommend them.

So Sylvania does not make this light? I checked Kragen and they don't carry any H6W either.
