What are the extra bulbs for??

Just received some OSRAM Silverstars from Powerbulbs.
I also got a set of Bluevision W5Ws.
What are they for?

They are parking lights, but i dont think that they'll fit the mini.
You get them free with your main lights when you make an order

I got some of those from powerbulbs as well - they do fit the mini - they make the side lights look whiter.

I'm waiting for my Osram Silverstars to arrive.
I understood the free W5W bulbs to fit the sidemarkers at the front of the car below the headlights, not the side of the car where the grille with the 'S' is.

Correct, side lights as in the ones that are next to the indicators is where those little blue things will plug in just nicely.
