Bulbs in G37S Coupe? Trying to replace them

I would like to replace my Low-Beams with a 10k bulb. Also, I would like to replace the white filament bulb to the left of it that is always on.

Anyone know what size the low beam is for HIDs? Also, the size of the bulb to the left(That one I wanna replace with a blue cluster LED)?

Anyone done this before?


Also, a G37s 2008

I think you are talking about the city/parking light (the filament bulb)...search for parking and city lights and you should find the size

the headlights are D2S and the fogs are H1, but I wouldn't get 10,000K they will be purple and you won't be able to see anything. 6000K is about the highest you should go, MAYBE 8000K for the fogs

Our car is a bi xenon headlights meaning high and low beam is together. Our cars uses d2S. If youre talking about the parking light then it's 168. You can try using the search next time if you want more answers.

I apologize for asking but what I found was a 2827 for the parking lights. Sorry. Also, does anyone have a recommendation for a place to shop online for HID bulbs and LED bulbs? My HID from my other car came from DDM and they sell the bulbs D2S for $15 which I don't think I could beat. Anyone else know otherwise?

Thanks

I think it's all the same. I remember there's a lot of different numbers but they all fit.

Man, if you can get them 15 bucks get them cuz nobody is offering them that cheap here. You should look into piaa LEDs I heard those are pretty bright.

The clearance light is different. It is the small 168 bulb in the amber reflector on the side of the headlight assembly.

To the OP, please oh please don't put ricey 10K bulbs in a really nice classy car like the G. Leave those to cheap Civics with low quality HID conversions. You won't be able to see anything with them and you will blind oncoming traffic.
