I would tell him to look at my website, but it's down right now (it's as complete as you could ever want). However, you can check sylvania.com's lamp replacement guide.

Are these the xtravisions? Do they emit a yellow/halogen looking light or a more HID like light (blue/white)?

When my fogs burnt out I replaced them with the standard 55 watt H3 Halogens for like $5 a piece. They did have silverstars and other H3s there but for $6 they had standard 100 watt H3s which would be much brighter...not sure what exactly you are trying to do?

kind...halogen
number...1 bulb in each housing

ideas? leave them alone. get HIDs or go home. replacing halogens with another halogen unless its blown = waste of money and time IMO.
