5W Bulb in Headlight (Side Marker Bulb) Part Number


Recommended Posts

My 06 Cayenne S has blue-ish 5W bulbs in the headlights.... one is burnt. All the autoparts places say p/n 2825 which is a clear bulb but I have yet to find the same blue bulb.

Any ideas?

I found a Victor 194B but the blue color is much darker blue. When my one is lit, it is more of a Xenon blue-ish color.

Thanks

Jon

I couldnt find at any auto parts store....its a W5W bulb. Autozone said they couldnt even order it. Got it from the local Porsche dealer for under $5 each. Part # N 017 753 8; Description "W5W XENON-BLUE LONGLIFE"

I would just get two and replace both sides while you're at it.

I would suggest that you can also get them at your local VW dealers parts dept. as well. They are just a few bucks there. Just bring in the bulb and tell them it is for a Passat side marker lamp.

You would be surprised at what you can get at the VW dealer for your Porsche for a fraction of the Porsche price.
