Default Dead orange bulb?

It seems that my front left orange bulb is dead.
Is not the blinker, I don't know the funtion.

Can someone help me with:
- type of the bulb
- how to change it? There is no space...

Thank you!

It's a side marker light; it is always lit. I've replaced mine with clear bulbs, though.

I've attached my "important bits"-picking of the handbook, with the bulb replacement instructions. Basically you remove the whole headlight, then that bulb is easily accessible.

Looks great, silvervisions or similar! Makes one wonder why Jaguar put silvervision bulbs in the rear direction indicators, yet not on the front ones.

.gov regulations. All the little lamps up front are to maintain the regulation light output for various angles.
