Mercedes-Benz Ponton Fog Lamps and Bulb TypesReading through Jeff Miller's excellent article on fog lamps (see Reference), I saw the bulb table at the end. It shows most of the conventional mini bulbs used on older Mercedes-Benz passenger vehicles, including but not limited to the bulbs for the 1953-1962 Ponton series. Before proceeding here you must read Jeff's article and note the DIN numbers of the bulbs. Everything proceeds from those DIN numbers, which are also in the first column of the table on this page. Unless otherwise indicated in the "Mercedes-Benz" column, Mercedes-Benz supplies the bulbs listed here according to their DIN number, according to my understanding.
Bulb designators vary by manufacturer, and the unusual ones are not always easy to find. For that reason, I developed the following cross-reference table derived from multiple sources, including Flösser, and Maryland Metrics.

** Curious overlap
- Additions and corrections are welcomed. In particular I was unable to make a cross reference to DIN 072601-012170 on the table.
- No guarantee as to completeness or accuracy about the column "Industry Standard" is implied. The numbers listed are a by-product of my effort.
- Use at your own risk. It is accurate based on the sources I found, but I cannot guarantee the accuracy of the sources.
