Default 2010 Touring front "position" light bulb?

Hi all,

I need to replace what the manual calls the front "position" lights, the ones that are below the high beam. I can't find any information on what bulbs these are supposed to be? I know the highbeams are H7 and lowbeams are H11B. Side marker lights are 168. Anyone know what the wattage or bulb type is for the position lights? Or have a good source for where I can find the information? I may just end up calling a local dealership parts department to ask. Thanks for any help! Autozone/OReilly etc databases aren't helpful.

If you have the owner's manual, it will list the bulb specs in there.

Jeeze thank you. I was looking in the maintenance section where the instructions for changing the bulbs are and assumed it would be there. Forgot about the section after that on entire vehicle specs.

For some reason the Canadian version for the 2010 Elantra Touring manual only lists the bulb watts and not the bulb types

If anybody can post a photo of the page with the bulb types it would be appreciated. (Just had fun trying to replace a daytime running light... Possibly a.k.a Position Light. Not even mentioned on the Canadian Tire website )

Thanks...

The Position bulb also gets called a daytime running light here to confuse everybody... Andy many websites don't list all the bulbs, so this information is invaluable.

Our experience has been that the Sylvania 168 LED works well in all these positions, particularly the position/DRL lamp:

I changed the headlight bulbs on my 2010 hyundai elantra to LED and they are way brighter then the stock bulbs, i highly recommend doing this upgrade. LED headlights are easy to find and relatively cheap to buy. For example, I can recommend the website https://carledheadlights.com/hyundai/elantra/2010/
