Those cars have HID (High Intensity Discharge) systems. Not just blue bulbs. HID systems make your lights several times brighter, but utilize much less power to run them. You can buy aftermarket HID systems with bulbs from around $300+. Blue tipped bulbs don't look nearly the same and are usually illegal. But if you must, go with a brand like PIAA.

His are H4 bulbs, they will not fit in our headlights. I fully support the idea of a good brand like PIAA, but I just bought some Hylite bran bulbs off of ebay and they are the whitest looking bulbs I've seen that are not HID. Only $14.95 + shipping. |

they arent true HIDs and they are H4 they wont fit. If your talking true HID its going to cost you a good $3-$400 for a decent pair. That includes all necessary wiring and ballast. Also, if your going to get blue HID, it wont show up on the road as well as in the rain. White will provide the best visibility and also blue is illegal.
