Default D1S is OEM, only one option for upgrading -->

Housing can accept D2S bulbs (D1S, D2S = interchangeable, has same fitting and bulb alignment specs) if you *really* want to increase kelvin but then you would need ballasts w/ seperate igniters to replace the stock ballast / bulb mounted igniter.

Best to keep with stock until the aftermarket catches up but don't expect Philips to make an Ultinon D1S anytime soon unfortunately.
