Day time running lights

New guy here with a new to me 2004 CL 55 AMG. Dam what a car. 73000 miles and stock with rims and tires, res delete already.
One of the things that is bothering me is the DRL. With the bright white of all the other lights is like MB forgot to install the correct bulb. Has a yellow old look to it.
So the question is whats the fix. Sylvania does not even list the DRL. All other bulbs listed.
Thoughts.

There are plenty of Xenon bulb options on Ebay dirt cheap. I added the color spectrum chart below. 4300K is the stock color that looks yellow. I wouldn't recommend anything above 6000K since it looks purple. For the other lights LEDs work great for getting rid of the yellow look.

Do you happen to have the part number for the bulb listed on ebay. the 6K would be about right.
Wheels are 20x9.5 front 245/35/20 and 20x10 rear 275/30/20 They where on the car when i bought it
