Look for D2s hid bulbs.

- Osram nightbreakers if you want max light output and don't care about yellowish color.

- Osram CBI if you want high light output and bluish color. (I'm using them)

Osram are pretty good and go for ~$100 on Amazon for both.

- eBay ~$10 d2s extra 7000k if you don't care about your car.

Always replace both bulbs.

You will not find LED headlights for this car. You will have to make them.

Why do you want 10,000k? This is the opposite of max output. You can't have both.

Have you tried this new thing called the Internet? They have some pretty dope cat videos on it and they also sell crap like HID bulbs too


Check out www.theretrofitsource.com for some 5000-6000K bulbs that should give you the crappy blue color you want while losing luminosity at the same time.

Dude there's no reason to be angry.

There are many threads like this one, and bulbs are not vehicle specific. Try using Google with "best d2s hid bulb" phrase, and you can find good websites, where people compare colors side by side, measure brightness, etc.

Welp I was too eager about 4 months ago and bought some $10 ebay special D2S bulbs and now my driver side headlight is flickering intermittently and sometimes will completely turn off. Really bummed out because i loved the color and light output, learned my lesson. Purchasing some Osram CBI's soon.
