Go with what the book says, 873 sounds right, but I don't remember for sure.

When you get them make sure they seal good when you turn them....I got screwed and mine didnt seal and I ended up with about half an inch of water in one of my foglights, now its all yellowed and dim...

IIRC, one can run 885's (same bulb dimensionally but more wattage).

Search or check yourself before doing so, as my memory is not what it once was.

And of course this would be for off road use only.
