Default Question on 06 tC 1st level headlights

I recently changed out my stock bulbs for hyper whites.
Now when I put my headlights on to 1st level(meaning the headlights arent on yet, but rear lights are enabled) there is a little bulb under the main headlight. The bulb projects yellow and doesnt give the look I want to achieve.
I wanted to pm some users that have done a successful bulb change with full whites or blues, but was a little afraid.
Okay now main question, I wanted to know if there is a way to change that bulb and if a hyper white bulb would exist. If no replies, ill post pics later
thanks!

I bought blue ones from AutoZone and its been 3 months. They have turned a slight green color but still pretty blue. They help achieve that look you are looking for. I may be wrong, but I think SilverStar makes some hyperwhites in #198...not sure. Go to your local auto parts store and see what they have.
