I think that they are called xeon globes. Euro style. check out http://www.ssv.com.au - they have them, else listen for the local duf duf crew passing by, sure they'll know.

ive read recently that they've developed Metal Halide globes for cars now, much more efficient light at night time (produces more lux), to be implemented into luxury cars first. unfortuantely they do like a bit more current, and i presume a bit more components e.i. ballasts behind the fitting.

I put a pair of Philips VisionPlus in my mum's car and they are great. they claim 50% more light and 20m longer beam while retaining 55W
$30USD landed with free pair of whiter parking bulbs from www.powerbulbs.com

never use higher wattage bulbs (like crazy 110W jap bulbs) they will start melting things!

BMW and Lexus use xenon which is a different system
