I just replaced mine and its H6W for litronic lights. I was also pretty confused about that bulb being called both parking lights and daytime running lights. You should have seen the look on the face of the counter clerk at Pep Boys when I mentioned it was for litronics, not standard headlights.

This bulb was not available through any of my local parts chain stores. My local dealership had em in stock but they were expensive at ~$15.00 USD each.

I tried searching here for the proceedure on how to change the bulb, only to find that yeah, its spelled out in the Owner's Manual on how to remove the litronic assmbly to change the bulb.
