Default New HID Bulbs?? Any advice?

Does anyone have any advice on options for replacement HID bulbs for an STi's stock HID system? Has anyone changed from stock HID bulbs to a different type/style of HID bulb? Any pics?

The OEM HID bulb should be a D2S. As far as I know its just a direct replacment. If you are looking for a different color just get a D2S bulb with the corresponding Kelvin level for the color you want..... I think thats what your asking

if its for your 04 STI, the stock bulb should be D2R. the only thing you can change them to is some goofy color. but i would stick with stock color.

Correct,

D2R bulbs are for a reflector headlamp, while D2S are for projector (06+ STi).

Thanks for the help. No one has any pics of an STi with different color bulbs or anything do they? I really don't know why I am so curious to see different HID bulbs in an STi, but it's probably because I have never seen it
