What bulbs for City Lights + General Questions
What type of bulb am I looking for to work with my DEPO Euro headlights?
All I have found so far with searches is the bulb is around 5W...but I couldn't find any particular recommendations, or even the type of bulb needed. It comes with a connector so all I need is the bulb I assume... Also, how exactly do the city lights work? When the car starts or what? I never knew my headlights had city lights until today...so I thought it would be cool to have them going. If not, is there a way to have them automatically turn on as soon as the car starts? Much appreciated!

I got mine wired up to the running lights.... You need to wire up your city lights to a circuit that tuns on when your ignition is on.
I can look at mine later when it stops raining and find out what bulb you need.

I believe the bulb is a 5w5.
I think most people just wire the city light to the corners so that when you turn the dial to the running lamp position, they come on with the corners...

The full european version is to have the city lights (no amber side lights) come on when you hit the first position on the headlight switch, but it's easier to run a line from the amber side lights to the city terminal on the six-connector.
Use H4 for the headlights, H3 for the fogs, and 1893 for the 5w city bulb.
