Actually being lazy was indeed part of the reason why.

Funny thing is. Taking off the front bumper is even more work. So I just owned myself there.

The bulb you are looking for is a 7443 (dual filament).
^LOL. Chris beat me to it, I was about to post the same thing but honestly... I just pull the bumper, and because it's such a pain, I go ahead and replace junk in pairs... same age so usually burn out within a month or so anyway.

Is this bulb available at the autostore?

When I replaced my headlamp last december I took the bumper off but ended up going through the fender. So much work for nothing. This time I'll just go through the fender. Thanks.

^Yes, you can get a 7443 in almost any auto-parts store. Usually a couple different versions (Amber/LED/etc...)

Are there dual function LED bulbs? One that is a DRL and blinker in one?

I went to an auto store. They had the regular bulbs and LED that blink but they weren't sure if it also acts a a DRL.

^Just to clarify... I wouldn't actually buy LED ones from an auto-parts place. There are much better LED bulbs to be found online... I was just saying they probably had them.

V-leds are a great company. Good LEDs. I have replaced just about all my lights with theirs. I would get bulbs from them
