Default LED for headlight

Hey guys, does anyone know what bulb is used where the reflector is on the headlight? I changed my to clear and the yellowish glow is nasty I want to replace it with a nice LED one. Need to know the LED bulb number though.

on the other note, can you guys list all the bulbs in the headlights? I am going to replace all of it, besides the HID that is..with LED. i wish to do this mod over the weekend, thanks guys

Be aware that the heat generated by the headlights may cause your LEDs to melt or burn out early.

Disconnect it, it looks better like that.

I put in YELLOW BULBS. When just the parking lights are on, it really stands out.
Though when the HIDs are on, it is visible from certain angles.

These are bulbs, not LEDs. It makes my Z stand out - a little.

Gives it an overlay look without the overlay.
