Red face Parking Light and DRL bulbs?

Ok please don't bash me or anything as i do know there are a lot of threads with the information i need BUT, i tried going through all of it and it has left more more confused and unsure than when i started so if someone could please help me out and help me out please?

What is the bulb size of the DRL's?

and

What kind of bulb do i need for the parking light/city light? (the bulb that ISN'T the DRL obviously; it's that little LED bulb in there)

Thanks in advance!

DRL is the high beam bulb 9005 (with a voltage cut), so it doesn't make any sense to change. The city lights are 194 bulbs and can be changed to LED replacements.

I used these; http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-HID...5152QQtcZphoto

well i'd like to change them so when i have my high beams on they actually match the low beams. I put 6000k HID's on my low beams, but my high beams are stock (thus yellow) so i'd like to change that asap

Yep! Thats what I did. I made my high beams and fogs 5150K. I noticed that when the high beams are on the low beams are too and it looked terrible with the high beams being yellow and the HID low beams being HID. So I changed those out too.
