Headlight bulbs

I'm trying to replace the inner bulbs with blue HID lights. I have a g37 coupe journey with xenon. The sockets seem to be different for the inner bulb (towards the center of the car). Does anyone know which type of socket this is?

oh dear this is gona be tuff, the drl is the small bulb that is always on, that can only be replaced by leds, the fog light is turned on where the blinker is, that one can be transfered to hid but i heard its tricky

I got xenon 35w HID bulbs.. I guess I cant do anything with this then? Yes I'm referring to the bottom right bulb. LED is better isn't it? I need something bright and blue.

So any of these should work right: http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=168....c0.m270.l1313

Dude white is boring. Get White on the outside with blue LEDs on the inside. Are the LEDs on ebay compatible?

Idk what you mean by white on outside blue on inside!!!..... lol TRUST me, I got blue leds in the drl, looks like a stupid civic ricer. I have a thread on here if you can find it. Ok look, since you like blue so much get 8k headlights, 8k hid fogs, and white drls. thatll look good, anything else and itll look too cheap.

I dont think mine comes default with fog lights. did you get yours installed? I wanna do white headlights 8k/10k drl. The white is much brighter which would make it better for headlights.
