Side/DRL specification?

[Jpdv]

Confused: the owner's handbook states that the 'front side lamps' are 'W3W' type (page 300 if you're a saddo). This throws up 'interior lights' when I search for replacement leds, and suggests a stunningly weak 3W output...

I think they've got it wrong. Should this be a W5W bulb? These appear to be generically 'side'/'DRL' lights, and actually sold for DRLs, which W3W are not...

Next step will be to take them out and physically check, but any comments gratefully received!

In the mirrors/doors?

No - it's the 'not headlights' in the front road lights... The 'daytime running lights', as far as I can identify. The owners manual shows them correctly, but names them as this bizarre low powered thing... Bottom and inboard: this bugger in this variant...177955
