Also, I have a light out, but its not a HID, its one of the two inner headlights, daytime running light i believe. does anyone know what kind of bulb i need for those?

 

thanks in advance for ur help...

 

Sean, will they work. Yes. How long they will last, that is hard to say. Another note to think about is that you are going to be sacrificing a lot of light output by stepping up to the 10000K bulbs. You are stepping from around 3100 lumen with the factory bulbs down to around 2300 lumen with the 10000K bulbs, or about 25% of your light is being reduced. Just pointing out a possible side effect you were not aware of. HIDs are not like halogen bulbs where a 55W bulb outputs effectively the same amount of light regardless of what you go with. HID bulbs are very specific and there are a lot of differences between differently rated bulbs.

As for the small running light on the front of your car that is burned out, that is a 194 bulb. Just be careful replacing the bulbs. Especially in this cold weather, breaking the insides of the headlights is possible. If you can park the vehicle inside of a garage to even warm it up to say 60 degrees, that will make a big difference.

 

thank you so much for the info. the 194 bulb, is that anything special by jar or should i be able to come up with it easily?

 

I really wouldn't get them. Those bulbs are crap and I have blown through at least 6. Go get OEM. Also, don't get any Philips or Hella bulbs you can find online unless you can guarantee they are real. A lot of overseas companies are making fakes and selling them for high prices when they are the same crap. GO OEM!
