It is for a 2001 non-Xenon set up. I had a pair in there, not sure of the name, but they melted and blew up on me. A friend gave them to me. I would like for this not to happen again.

Default I've had success with the Cool Blues from any Autozone or Advance

Replace both bulbs at the same time. They seem to last longer than OEM. The Silver *** (dont remember the full name) is the next step up from Cool Blues but I can't justify that extra cash so I'm sticking with Cool Blues.

Not sure, i guess they were the stock wattage. I am not looking to upgradet the wattage, just get a better visual of the road while driving at night.

I looked there and they are $40 a pair. Isn't that a little high for bulbs?
