Default Replacement high beam bulbs

One of the bulbs went out and wouldn't mind replacing both with a brighter more effective bulb. Any suggestions with pictures? AP1, haven't checked to see of ap2 are interchangeable. Thanks!

I went with Osram Night Breaker Plus bulbs when I had one go out. They're marginally brighter than stock and a good upgrade if you've already got a bulb that's burned out.

Thanks! Was looking at the Silverstar xY3 (sp) and they seem pretty good. Now, this is not to be a jdm fan boy, but I do a lot of trips to the coast through a forest and mountain range and frequently encounter fog. Do yellow lights work that much better than standard in foggy conditions?

in dense fog, please do not use high beams. Yellow fogs are the best for that use, they break thru the and not reflect like the white bulbs.

Hence my asking about yellow bulbs in the high beam...know not to use the high beam in fog or a James Bond smoke effect happens, but curious about yellow beams in the high beam in fog

My high beams are yellow. It hasn't been fogging up lately but IMO it doesn't make a difference from when they were yellow or white. I just perfer the yellow over white
