Default Replacing stock hid bulbs

Hey CL,

I'm thinking of replacing my stock 15 year old hid bulbs for some new ones as i'm finding the light ouput on the road is really bad now.So i'm going to get some new hid bulbs to see if that makes a diffrence on the light output and improves my night time driving.

Are the stock hid bulbs D2R or D2S?

Cheers

Pete
