Let's start with this, what is the price range you're looking to spend?

Since no one else has said it...

The headlights are H13s (9008s) and the fog lights are 9140s and 9145s can be used.

This is the best way to find what bulb you need for any vehicle in the future.

Thanks NastyFX4..

Im not going to spend hundreds on HIDS. But i know there are some better builbs out there. Maybe a slighter whiter light with some more lumens.

Philips X-treme. I have a write up in the Ilumination Threads. Search for more info. Got them from Candlelight Power website. Been running them for over 2 years with great results!

You could always just buy some cheap Chinese HIDs and aim them a little lower. Not ideal but it's cheap I guess. If you are interested check out VVME.com and DDMTuning.com

Just switched out my 9140 stock fogs for the SilverStar 9145's and they are a bit brighter and whiter. Stock yellow looked pathetic when compared to the stock HID's...better. but not perfect...
