Default HID Bulbs

Hi

My 03 blob has HID main lights. Just wanted to know if all HID bulbs were the same or are there different types. Just thinking ahead if one goes where would I get one from. Any help would be appreciated.

I think they would be the same ie h7 or h1 etc its just the bulb temperature that controls the light check this link for what different temps are availablehttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HID-BI-XENON-KIT-DUAL-BEAM-H4-High-Low6000k-8000k-10k-/270698903035?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM& hash=item3f06e975fb

most auto shops should bulbs individualy unless they are aftermarket hid's

hope this helps
