Default Ipd angel eyes

Does anyone know what size/type of bulb the halo rings take?
They're incredibly dim and very yellow, I really want to replace it with an led, but idk what the bulb is
Also, if anyone knows the specs on the bulb at the bottom of the hi-beam cone, that would be useful, too
I want to swap it for a yellow one and hook it up to the turn signal
Thanks

not sure about the Halos, but the city light (thats what the bulb in the high beam is called) is a 168. I switched mine to amber colored lights as well, but have them on with the DRLs because I like that look.

either doing bright white or a pale blue (to match my HIDs)

they appear to be, I can't take my headlights out and apart right now to check.
I was hoping it was an LED with a standard bulb base, I really don't want to solder a new one in...
