Copied from 1982 owner's manual for Checker Marathon. Because it's easier than pulling the bulb and trying to figure out what it is.

Procedures/Notes
Headlights - Remove outer trim piece (four Philips head screws); remove ring that holds bulb in place (three Philips head screws); pull old bulb out of socket and put in the new one; put it all back together. When low-beams are on, only the outer bulbs (4002/5006) are powered. When high-beams are on, outer and inner (4001/5001) bulbs are powered.
