Default Need Help Identifying a Bulb. Socket picture included. Turn signal

Hey Guys

This is my drivers side turn signal off of a 1999 audi a4. This is the socket that is left after a chunk of ice took out my whole corner light. I dunno if im a missing a piece that connects to this that connects to the light or if this connects directly to the bulb and if so WHAT KIND OF BULB IS IT???

<a href="http://s20.photobucket.com/albums/b218/Plopper/?action=view¤t=IMG_0649.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b218/Plopper/IMG_0649.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Sorry showed it to a couple people and no one had a clue.

Default If you have two piece headlights and you lost your turn signal...

the connector probably went with the corner light housing. Happened to me once. They're not too expensive from the dealer.

Haha actually that kind of happened to me. The ice hit, nothing happened, went to pull over and check things out and 5 seconds later it flew up over my windshield and all over the highway.
