Ok... I know there have been countless threads on here about replacement bulbs and HID, but I wanted to try and get as much advice as I can for some replacement bulbs or an HID kit.
First off, I am the third owner of my '04 4runner and I'm loving every minute of it. One of my favorite things about it in fact when I first got the 4runner was the headlight bulbs in it. They produced a very bright white/blue color and almost looked like HID (almost identical to AngieJ on this website. Do a search to see his).
Unfortunately one bulb burnt out and I had to replace it and when looking at the bulb there was no writing at all on either bulb. The bulbs were a darker blue color and had an orange ring around the bottom (almost identical to the bulbs in this link but I have tried these bulbs and they weren't the same

I first thought they may be Hella brand, but when purchasing a set of Hella's they were not the same color. I don't know the original wattage or brand so I don't know where they were bought or anything. I have contacted the previous owners and they both said that they were factory installed. So, too late to make a long story short, but I would like to know if anyone has seen these bulbs being factory installed. My questions are
1) Does Toyota install factory bulbs that are blue?
2) Would my best bet be to install an HID kit for the blue/white look?
3) Should I install an HID kit if I don't have projector? (I have original reflector lights but blacked out by Jason Burtman)
4) Anyone have any suggestions for a replacement bulb to give me a good light output and white/blue look? (I DO NOT WANT YELLOW COLOR AT ALL!! I WANT THE WHITE LOOK WITH NO YELLOW!)
