US Light Bulb equivalent numbers?

[OldRick]

Can anyone tell me the US light bulb equivalents for the bulbs used in the `05 Mini? The owners manual is silent on the topic.

I've been able to purchase overwattage bulbs for:
High Beams = H-7
Frog lights = H-11
Tail/stop lights = 1157 (where do they find these obscure bulb numbers, like 7528?)

I need the US numbers for:
Front turn indicators (color)?
Side turn indicators
Rear turn indicators (what color bulb is used on an `05?)
Backup lights

To spare the wiring and the other drivers, I've been moderate on the bulb upgrades, with 70w white (not blue) bulbs for the High beam and Frog lights, and 8/30w for the tail/stop bulbs, and I'd like to make similar 50% brighter upgrades to the others - you can't have too much light, IMHO.

Where did you find 70 watt H7s and H11s?

Hoen USA seems to be a good-quality manufacturer, and offers bulbs in several color temperatures, i.e. degrees of blueness, to match (or not) the factory HIDs. I chose their xenmatch line, since it has less blue flitering in the glass, and thus put more lumens on the road.

Their prices are also better than PIAA, for example, since you aren't paying for their extremely misleading and costly advertising.

Surely someone has replaced these light bulbs without going to a BMW parts department? Help?
