What is the bulb next to the low beam lens? Nothing I try will get them to come on.

They're wedge style bulbs. I replaced mine with white LEDs, they look good.

I disconnected my parking lights, too, or just took the bulb out, after reading on here that other people recommended it. It makes the projector more prominent.

(I'm trying to figure out how to do a high beams mod where the high beams could be used in place of the regular headlights (projectors), or another setup would be using both high beams and headlights/projectors on. I might just end up paying to have it done since it doesn't look like there's a DIY for it...yet.)
