Does anyone know what the fog lamp bulb type is on the pre-facelift QP headlights?

I am going to replace it, as well as the city light to xenon-white so as to get a uniform look.

Any info is greatly appreciated. I'd hate to rip apart everything just to find out what the bulb is....

This is what's behind the inner liner:

Remove these 2 metal clips (one to the right, one to the left):

City lights are to the outside of this module.  Twist a quarter turn and remove city lights.  The turning bulb type is H21W Phillips or similarly 64136, 12356 or H6W but longer. City light is the standard wedge bulb.

Here's the location of the fog light bulb after you remove the plastic casing:

Here's the SUPER ELUSIVE fog light bulb.....and it's *drum roll* H3 ! !
