Default Replacement low-beam headlight recommendations

I have a 2007 IS250. My right low-beam headlight went out and I am looking to purchase bulbs to replace both headlights (to ensure they are the same color). Can anyone recommend a good, legitimate dealer for headlights? Preferred brand? Preferred color temp? I don't care for yellow or blue lighting - I'm thinking those may be the two extremes...

I apologize for the repetition of this thread and truly appreciate any and all suggestions!

Thanks!

Smokey,

Does your vehicle have halogen headlights or factory HID's? We are an authorized Philips dealer and have both halogen and HID bulbs for your vehicle.

For HIDs i have used morimotos for many years on my other cars and they last a real long time. around 4500-5000K to get white light. For Halogens, on my 2013 altima, I had Phillips Crystal VISION. THEY WERE ABOUT 4300k and gave a good white light. The ultravision line were 4500k. Dunno about longevity on the phillips though since I didnt have the car that long.

Morimotos can be found at http://www.theretrofitsource.com/
