Looking for these for my highbeams
I need what i believe to be a HB3 bulb for my headlights, anyone know where I can get a set?
I have a set of these H9 for my low beams, but I want for High Beams.

I don't want HIDs.
Thanks

Our low beams are H11, and our high beams are 9005 (HB3).
The H9 is a high beam bulb that doesn't fit in the H11 socket, but is close enough that with a little cutting & filing it can be modified to work.
Be very careful when replacing bulbs with those of a higher wattage than the wiring harness was designed for!
Can you say "meltdown"?
Here is a DIY for the H9 bulb to H11 socket conversion:

I accept no responsibility for any electrical problems that this may cause, but I do know at least one person who has done this to an xB2 and has had no problems running the H9 high beam bulb in his H11 low beam projectors for over a year. We can get away with this because of the cut-off in the projectors.

Thanks for clkarifying! My C R S acts up some days and I have to question my answers! Ya know Cant Remember S&^%!!
I do know that if Ya change wattage bulbs to make sure you can get a Wiring harness to go with bulbs!!
Are you doing this for brightness or jsut because? Id go hid, plenty of cheap kits out there with relay kits, so no harm to the electrical system. I already had the ballasts from my xa, so I just had to buy the bulbs for the xb. About the same price vs silver stars. I got 4300k for low, which is white and 3000k for high, which is amber and WOW they are bright.
