Best to change both at the same time.

Keep in mind the hotter the color the shorter the life, which usually means the higher the cost the shorter the life. Life estimates are on the back of the package.

Get whatever you want. Everybody has a belly button/favorite.

If you're only replacing the one that's burned out, then get one that matches the passenger side. Ex. If the passenger is the original (standard) type bulb, then you want one that matches in intensity and light color.

I use H13, OSLamp LED lamps , why? Better light, and they were $20.00 on EBay.

Your correct , here it’s very hard to find 9008 bulbs, so I thought, what the hay!

Not compatible with either LT or LS. . . .

Ended getting 2 bulbs for $10. Hope they work.

9008 is an industry identification for the H13 designation. H13 is the actual international name/designation. 9008 is a stock number, that's why it is hard to find in some places.

I’ve got them in my 2007 LS and I just installed a set in my friends 2010 2LT.
