2k2/2k3 HID REPLACEMENT BULBS????

I want to upgrade my 2k2 Maxima HID bulbs to 8000k HID bulbs. The problem I am running into is the size of the OEM HID bulb.
Does anyone know the correct bulb size to upgrade to?
8000k 9005 HID bulbs?
8000k 9006 HID bulbs?
8000k 9007 HID bulbs?

Can someone let me know? Thnks...

The 2K2-2K3 stock HID bulbs are D2R bulbs. I got a brand new set of KOPS 6000K D2R HID bulbs for sale if interested.

Anyone know what bulb I would need to get to replace the orange in the HID? I'm planning on putting the frosted lens in instead of the stock orange one, but I still want it to light up orange at night so the will leave me alone. Anyone have a part #? Thanks.

doesn't make sense. just like H1, H3, and H7 is a size, HID is a size. what people do is change the socket so they can fit them in non-HID housings, like your fogs, which would be H3-HID or your high beams, which would be 9005-HID. you want simply and nothing more than HID, the original socket for it.
