Headlight bulb size conversion

So i am seeing that the stock bulbs are d2s which i know absolutely nothing about because I'm normally dealing with standard bulb and xenon bulb sizes, is it possible to get a xenon kit for this car? Like my Honda i believe was a 9006 size, what is the equivalent of d2s if that's even possible?

Then perhaps I'm using the wrong terms, either way i have used xentec branded xenon lights (cheap ones i know that much) in my other cars which go by 9000 or hb size bulbs and there's no option for d2s so I'm wondering if there's an equivalent to those sizes that i need to look for. Maybe that brand i buy from just lables them as standard bulb sizes

You probably got a kit that converts halogen bulbs to the HIDs. I don't think there are any "stock" xenon bulbs that come in 900X or HBX sizes.
D2S is one of more common kinds of HIDs. Get Osram CBB. They go for ~$100 for a pair on Amazon and as long as you pay extra care to make sure that they are original you should be fine.
Also, $100 for very good bulbs, that will last like 10 years is not much.

What do you mean by extra care to make sure it's original?? But yeah no my cars had standard lights and it was probably a conversion kit that I didn't know the term for my bad, do the osram's come in different temperatures that give off a different shade/color as well?

take your pick on D2S bulbs depending on budget, all legit and don’t have to worry about counterfeits on Amazon.
