so i guess that euro KJs do have different bulbs.
the US versions use 9007s which are completely different.

try something along the lines of a sylvania silver star bulb or some sort of ultra-white bulb. i'm currently running APC xenon gas super whites and they have improved my low beams dramatically. |

i do believe that this would be the closest. without knowing the brand, i can't guarantee it, but it seem like the best option there. http://www.consumabulbs.com/files/bdet.php?id=212 |

I'd be more worried about the wiring harness for the headlights and not the plastic "lens". |

i agree. i wonder if the euro versions of the KJ have different bulbs. i didn't realize that H4s were the same as 9007s |
