daytime running lights/high beam bulbs to match HIDs on GS400?
I notice the daytime running lights are quite yellow, and look terrible next to the HID lighting.
Does anyone know where I can get bulbs to replace the yellowish ones (I do NOT mean the fogs)? I want to be sure I get bulbs that will not melt wiring, etc. etc...
What type of bulb do I need, how many, and where can I get them the cheapest?
Thanks!

The one towards the bottom of the housing is the nighttime driving light. Mentioned before either a Polarg 4 or 6. As for the Daytime running light....that is your highbeam bulb running at 50% power. There is no way to illiminate that from being yellowish...no matter what buib you get.

the DRL turns off when the low beam lights comes on. The parking lamp (lower bulbs) stays on with the low beam lights. as others are stating polargs m4 are good but not quite the oem 4100k color. The m4 matches 6000k bulbs better.
i haven't found a good match to the 4100k yet. if anyone knows of one, please chime in.

Waiting for Bulbs
I ordered the Polarg M4s off of Ebay hoping they would match well with my OEM HIDs and clear fogs using MTEC Cosmos Blue 4750K bublbs. Unforunately, it has been 12 days and I haven't received them and the seller has not responded to my emails. I might order another set from Automotivelighting.com but ran across some other options such as the MTEC Superwhites and Raybrig Platinum Whites.

Has anyone used either of these with any success matching 4100-4300K OEM HIDs?
Thanks..

Those are Raybrig RC361 LED bulbs. As you can see they're too blue for the 4300k HIDs I have. If you're willing to spend a little more for LEDs you can probably find some that matches much better than M4's and won't burn out as quick as M6's.
