Default Type of healdlight in 2007 ls460

Just wanted to verify what type of headlight replacement I should be ordering for my 2007 LS460. To my understanding it is a D4S.

Thank you!

Is this the Forum favorite here, or, OEM preferred?

Both our Lexus had the std 4500k 4ds. I switched both cars to the much whiter light 5k Phillips bulbs.

Very low quality bulbs that will last months at best. Painted for color output and will put out probably 50% as much light as your OEM bulbs, and they're also illegal.

I'm trying to figure out if I'm looking for 4DS, Philip, or Osram. I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Oh well, D4s,D2s, Phillips, or Osram. I guess it's personal pref anyway.
