there are quite a few choices...

if u got the money..get some PIAAs H1 4000k Extreme White...i have those...really good...bright...with a small tint of blue..

you could also get Sylvania Silverstars...or OSRAM silverstars..

osrams are brighter..sylvanias are whiter...

IMO...eurodesigns suk...

PHILLIPS bluevision bulbs are ok too.

PIAA and Sliverstarts are too much $$$$$. I guess I am sorta cheapin out on da benz, but I have other plans for that cash........maybe clear corners.....lol

There are 7000k and higher HID systems.

Just replace them with Orsam, Sylvania, or Phillips...don't get wannabe HIDs because they aren't as bright as regular bulbs. The tint lowers the brightness and the fake ones with higher wattage will melt your housing and screw up your wiring harness.
