Double check the bulb even after going to Sylvania. I went to Sylvania to look for the fog bulb type and it indicated H11 but in reality it was H3. Cost me some shipping cost since I wanted to install HID fogs and ordered the incorrect bulb. Usually Sylvania is very good but I believe there was a bulb change midyear for the 2002 X5.

I suggest you open up all the interior light locations you want to replace to be certain.

Under the Doors you'll have - 4 bulbs
Front foot well - 2 bulbs
Rear under seat foot area - 2 bulbs

Folks be sure to order the 12volt version! I've heard from others of melting bulbs...
