Wedge bulbs? I am assuming you mean the bulbs that light up in the middle lights when the low beams are turned on? If that is what you are referring to, those are PIAA Super white

If you are going to get HIDs you might as well spend the extra $ and get a good kit, like Philips. Dont cheapskate it, you will regret it later. Osram or Ultinon bulbs are good.

I agree! You'd rather pay for a kit you know will perform well.

speaking of which, Brendan, did you find out what was wrong with your lights? Was it a weak battery? I don't see any evidence of weak, yellow light in those pics you posted

The lights turned out blue in the picture because of the white balance and the exposure -- but! the problem is all gone! We ended up switching out the whole kit part by part. Jason really holds up to that warranty.
