Stock Headlight bulb conversion

If anybody can help, I have a '07 4Runner with stock headlight bulbs, and I want to change these out as they look yellow to me. I was looking for some HID bulbs, something that can compare to the lights on a newer Nissan 350Z. Does anyone know the bulb that can do this?
Much thanks for any help or ideas!

You could do 1 of 2 things.

First thing would be to go with an HID conversion kit. Those can be found anywhere online. Ebay has some, and I've heard that XenonDepot is a good company from the Lexus forums.

Second, you could go with some Hoen Xenon Math Plus bulbs. I've heard good things about them and the pictures on their website look good. There obviously other brands out there, i.e. Silverstar, which you could pick up from any autoparts store.

You can do a research about Philips X-Treme Power..Lots of nega feedbacks on the lifesspan of the Silverstars Ultra:

I have the Silverstars Ultra while waiting for a good deal of Philips X-treme power at ebay. If you don't want to go for the HID, look for xenon-halogen bulbs

Ha!,ha!.ha! my 6yrs old bulb:

compare to Siverstars Ultra(Its not even close to HID):

You can slightly modify an H9 bulb to fit in there. Seems to be a worthwhile upgrade that I've seen others do. For comparison, the H9 is a 65W bulb that puts out 2100 lumens vs. an H11 that is 55W and puts out about 1350 lumens.
