year and model would help..

soobyfan is correct for a GC... sylvania SS lists the H4 under 9003.

tho I would recommend osram silverstars...same bulb no blue coating.

Like mentioned eariler, H4 for high/lower beam and H3 for fog lamps. Are you looking for white beam or the factory color? PIAA is good but often expensive, and so are RAZO and Raybrig. If you prefer white and want Japanese made light bulbs, go with MTEC. Otherwise, Sylvania silverstars are pretty good domestic light bulbs and easy to find locally. When you upgrade, watch out for the high output bulbs, as they often draw very high current and resulting in overheat problem.
Good luck!

No, H4 bulbs are also referred to HB2. 9007, on the other hand, can also be considered as HB5.

i thought H4s were also 9003?

the above posted link has the info you need..

on a side note... i now have osram silver stars (+50), phillips vision plus (+50), and GE megalight (+60). I'm gonna test them out and see which performs better, or if they are all the same!

btw..i've tried the sylvania SS and did not like them..they washed out on wet roads..
