What type of high beam / fog light bulbs?

What size/type of bulbs do the RX-8s have for their high beams and fog lights?

I tried Sylvania Silverstars in the high beams of my BMW 325is that I've just sold and was very impressed by their improvement. I'm now running them in the low and high beams of my Z3. I don't like the ricy look of a fake xenon bulb (although I absolutely LOVE real HID xenons), so for a halogen bulb, I prefer just a bright white. The blue tints also tend to dim the bulbs. The Silverstars gave me a significant improvement in range and they've converted me from the PIAA Super White Platinums that I used to swear by. They're also 1/2 the price. Running SCCA Winter Rallys, it was critical to see as far ahead as possible. I was looking into mounting a light bar in front of the grill, lol. I bet I'll be the only one here running an RX-8 in winter rallys!

So, I'd like to put the Silverstars in the high beams and fog lights of the RX-8 that I'm picking up tomorrow (Friday), but need to know what sizes they are. Does anyone know? Thanks!
