Front bumper lights questions

I'm trying to make all my car lights to work, but I'm not sure about the front bumper ligths --- I'm having difficulties because access to parts and information its difficult here in South America.

The questions are:

1. Originally, those front bumper lights work as turn signal / parking lights (blinking) or do they work as permanent beams as headlights are turned on?

2. Do they come with ambar , white or blue bulbs???

Help is appreciated!!

they operate as park lights and turn signals - amber bulbs.

By the way, does anyone know what's the part number for those bulbs?

Re: Front bumper lights questions

If I remember correctly - they are the standard 2 filament bulb like a 1057, except amber colored. You can get them out easily - just reach up from below grab the plug, squeeze the sides, and twist counterclockwise - then twist the bulb out of the plug by pushing in and twisting counterclockwise. You don't have to remove the light assembly - just a bit of a stretch and and a reach. I think www.sylvania.com has a chart listing all bulbs for all cars.
