Going to bump this one instead of making a new thread.
Are there "eyelid" bulbs we can get that match the headlights?
The 2 different light colors bugs me.

They are 194 bulbs. You need 4 total I believe. Blue tinted halogen still do not match HID color. You can put in LEDs but some cause error codes, some do not. Those that do not tend to be CANBUS type. The problem there is that CANBUS LEDs are more expensive and fail faster because the small package resistors on them can't handle the current forever like a regular light bulb can and burn out a lot quicker. You could put a load resistor in to solve the problem and use regular (cheap) LED bulbs. But that has its own problems.

There's a sponsor on here AznC300 or something (Mike). He sells LEDs for our cars

I bought these in both 5000k and 8000k and they look great with no errors. You will need 2 for each light (4 in total)

In my opinion the 8000k is a better match than the 5000k. I have had them in for about 8 months with no issues.
