Help with G37 headlights

So I'm slowly upgrading my g37 and am looking to change the headlights, more specifically I think the headlight bulb. As you can see in the picture, one part of the headlight is a white color, the other is yellow. What do I need to swap in order for it to be a uniform white color? Thanks

There's a ton of options to choose from and pretty tough to get them to match exactly the same. Best way is to order the headlights and the city lights at the same time, from the same vendor in the same color.

stop it.

While your in there, be sure to change the blinker fluid. It runs out fairly quickly

You may wish to review the thread entitled "Test Fit" for really cool developments on headlights.
I am looking forward to their results and hope it is cost effective.

I removed the yellow/white 194/168 parking light bulb from the socket entirely, looks much cleaner at night, replacing the bulb with an led will never perfectly match the HID bulb and just pulling the bulb solves the matching problem
