H8 bulbs...or you can always go the HID route....alot of your q's can be answered with a little bit of searching (upper right corner)...

Hmmm...didnt realize they change the bulb from the 9006, my bad.

However Nokya doee make the same bulb in a H8. In any case they work great and are not expensive...I bought mine for like $27 locally.

Some LCI's (one's with M-tech kits) have stated the bulbs are still 9006...best bet would be to take the bulb out or your e60 to check for yourself....

I believe melimel and too_solid had to use 9006 bulbs...
