Tell your mechanic that he is blind , cause if he look carefully he should able to see that there's a parklight next to the main head light. Cause yours is a face lift, so its different to the pre-face lift.
All you have to do is, turn on your light at the first level, then get out have a look & you should know what i mean. But if you don't see anything, then is either you missing the globes or yours isn't a real face lift model, & just someone updated the front bumper.
I believe for face lift model should be using H4, while the pre face lift are HB4. Take it out & have a look, it should stated on the globe.

Dam i didn't clear it up, what i mean is H4 & HB4 are for your normal main lights. So thats my answer for HID.

Are you sure it is a '97 model and not an earlier model with a facelift?
The '97+ models have the parker built in with the main headlight (i.e. you'll see two globes when you look at the headlight). Have a look, if you only see the one globe you've got a pre-facelift car which has had the bumper changed to the facelifted one.

What makes you think you need to install a custom one? All you have to do is to replace it if it blow out! & it will take you 5mins max.
Open the bonnet, & have a good look at it, its not hard. Its basically twist & turn.
