Exclamation :: Definitive E82 / E88 Bulb Guide

This thread will be the definitive guide for replacement bulbs. The Sylvania guide is incorrect (found out the hard way). I'd also like to compile an accurate list of compatible bulbs. So, let's begin! Please feel free to chime in and I'll update this post. Let's go!

The BLUE highlighted model numbers are either what Sylvania says (heh) is the OE bulb or what I/we believe it to be.

NOTE: Please do not take the initial list as gospel. It's up to the community to assist to make this list accurate!

LAST REVISION:
