New light blub???

So I was warming up the car ready to head home from work. and soon as I turn my head lights on this is what it look like..

I talked to a couple peoples who drives bimmers which has nice HID and they told me I need replace the bulb. what kind of bulb I need to get? just the normal 9006 HB4?

The exact same thing happened to me.



Yeah it's just the bulb. Philips D2S or Osrams. You might just want to get a pair incase your older bulbs have blue'd a little.

Edit: I actually have my stock Osram one that you could have, I kept it for a spare.

do you have a hid kit or is it factory hid? if it's a kit than you would need a 9006 bulb size. if it's factory than it's a d2s bulb size. i recommend buying a pair and changing both bulbs since kelvin temperatures do change with run time and having 2 different color lights is lame, and get 4300k-4500k for best lighting.

Yes, its factory HID. I've tried to looked around town see if anyone carry those bulbs but no luck yet.
