Anyone know what bulb this is

I've got the halogen bulb housing for my car and am trying to figure out the bulb type/size for the middle bulb (tiny light bulb) that sits between the high and low beam lights.

I've done some searching on the Sylvania light directory, but it is not clear what this light is called for reference. So hoping that someone here can help me out.

Thanks!

168 wedge will fit, make sure you get 5 watt or the computer will have error message on all time.

since i haven't yet installed the aftermarket bulbs to the high beam, my oem light always appears yellow to me. it is not as yellow during the day b/c of the sunlight, but when i do flash or use them they are very yellow.
