They are what the manual calls, Clearance lights (aka parking lights, as mentioned). You should stick with the same watt amount, 5 (again, as mentioned) or else you could blow something :).
I replaced my parking lights with Plasma's.. no problems thus far :).

I have been trying to find the difference between the 168's and the 194's for a while. it might be just a wattage difference, because they are the same size.
