2006+ M35/45 Bulbs

[S_Klass]

Hello,

I'm the new guy! Going to take delivery of a 2006 M35 Sport in 2 weeks and want to do a full LED swap.

I've gone through the FSM and have questions on the bulbs as the FSM doesn't describe the bulbs in standard fashion (H7/168/2825 e.t.c.)

ExteriorF. Combination Lamp - Front Turn Signal - 7440A - Qty 2? (Is this bulb the furthest from the grill?_F. Combination Lamp - Parking Lamp - 2825 - Qty 2? (Where is this bulb? Does this serve as M35 DRL? Is this constantly lit?)F. Combination Lamp - Front Side Marker - 2825 (Do I need Flank Mount*?) - Qty 2?R. Combination Lamp - Stop Lamp - N/AR. Combination Lamp - Rear Turn Signal - 7440AR. Combination Lamp - Rear Side Marker - N/ABackup Lamp - 921Side Turn Signal Lamp - 7440A (Do I need Flank Mount*?) - Qty 2?Front Fog - H11 License Plate - 168 (Do I need Flank Mount*?)High Mount Stop - N/A

InteriorMap Lamp - DE3175 or BA9? - Qty 2? Where is this bulb?Personal Lamp - Type? - Qty 2? Where is this bulb?Trunk Room Lamp - Upper - 168? (Do I need Flank Mount*?)Trunk Room Lamp - Lower- 168?

*Flank Mount bulbs are bulbs where the light is cast perpendicular (90 degrees) to the mounting of the bulb.

A lotta questions, I know. Sorry but I'm really excited and can't really wait.

Thanks!

Hey S_Klass,Do you know how to change the License plate light bulbs?

[S_Klass]

The FSM has instructions, IIFC, looks quite straight forward to me.

But that's for the 06-07, although it doesn't look like it should have changed.

Refer to LT and then page 265.
