Hi, I will be getting a polar white xB soon, and I want to roll out of the dealer lot with HIDs, so I was wondering if you guys could tell me what bulb size the xB uses, is it H4?

to do this properly you would need a bi-xenon hid setup, unless you're planning to retrofit something else?

if i remember correctly the headlight bulb is also used for hibeaming, so you would lose that without a bi-xenon kit...

I'm not so sure about that. Apparently 9003 and H4 fit the same, but have different beam dispersion patterns. xB should have a 9003 only.

I hope Chucksu has her knowledge cap on.....Chucksu can you find the post where this was discussed???
