Looking for replacement bulbs. Any one have the Morimoto D1S 6500K XB Xenon Bulb or 12V-35W Xenon Headlight Bulb - Osram 63217217509? Any recommendations on replacement bulbs? Thanks

i have Osram Xenarc Cool Blue Intense. despite the name it is bright white, not blueish. great visability.

No direct experience with the part numbers you specified, but I would recommend one of the 3 Osram D1S options. The main differences are light output and the color. From least to most expensive they are:

Xenarc OEM - standard replacement and color
CBI (Cool Blue Intense) - 'bright white' (around 5500K), brighter than OEM
Night Breaker Laser - closer to true white (4300K) and brighter than the CBI

I replaced the bulbs in my e70 x5 with the CBI and am very happy. I plan to replace my pre-LCI e90 with the Night Breaker Laser as soon as I see a need to, since the LED angel eyes and fog light bulbs are true white and not cool blue.

I have had the morimoto ones for two(?) years without issue. 4500k.
They were brighter than ten year old factory ones and haven't been a problem.
they were slightly green for the first hours, but now they're pretty near the OEM color.

Thanks for the recommendations.
