pretty sure it's h7 but take a pic of the bulb on the car now and we can tell you for sure. i recommend 4300k or 6000k. also, make sure you have projectors in order to control the beams. otherwise you'll have random light rays all over the road and you'll be blinding others

Yea I bought a pair of projector headlights (see sig) off ebay and I believe it will concentrate the beam. I a thinking either the 6k or 8k....My friend is going with 6k, I think I want more of a blue hue so I may try 8's....any suggestions?

Hey if you bought projectors off of Ebay, then the bulbs are probably H1.
For color temperature, 6000K are the best.
