if your car has the lighting package...you already have xenon headlights for sure. do you want a different color, or do you want brighter lights? you can always get a 50 watt ballast which is stronger than the 35 watt ballasts that come stock, but your gonna probably get cops pulling you over because it is too bright. just a thought.
get some xenon fogs and im sure that will make you happy

Yeah the stock lights are fine, why would you need them any brighter? And you have the fogs too...

Then like Chris said, to go brighter you need to get higher wattage ballasts. To go bluer you need to get higher Kelvin HID/Xenon bulbs.

Yep, but it's D1S, so I think the highest is around 5400k?
While were on the topic of lighting I have a question, can you put HID's in the Halogen headlights even though there is no projector?

The halogen housing is a projector as well (the main/low beam anyway), and yes you can do a retrofit Xenon kit to it. You can do them to non-projector housings as well, but I wouldn't recomend it.
Thanks for the info, looks like i'm going to be doing that soon. I can't stand the yellowish headlights.

Unless they changed it when moving from the 2005.5's to the '06s, B7 halogen housings are reflectors, not projectors as they were in the B6s
