The standard bulb is halogen.

I tried cool blue on my Civic, and got the same low quality light as
original. My friend have 100 watt Hyper White on his truck. The light
look better than the purple HID from MB. I would go this route when I get
my headlights fixed.

I've read long time ago that 100 watts would melt the headlight, or the
wires, not sure which.
