Default Parking light bulbs??

I have had a problem with the tail light warning every time I turn on the lights. I am replacing all the bulbs, but getting conflicting info. The book at the parts place says to use 5008 Euro spec sylvania bulbs, but they are 10W! but my book says 5W-which would be a 5007 off the rack. I did get the 5W license plate bulbs. Which bulbs should I get for the front, side markers and rear tail so everything is righ?.

Thanks

5W or 21W/5W for the combo's is correct (some Euro bulbs are even 4W (I think either works)

Another light problem gone. Someone had put a US 10W bulb in the left rear marker-and not sure if it matters but had the wires backwards. Installed two sylvania 5007 (5W) from Kragen and no more dash light warning. Both books at the store did call for 10W 5008???? I wonder if they were all 10W if the light would stay off.?
