If I remember correctly they are H3.

I will look at the spare bulb I have and get back to you.

Checked, it is H3.

Aftermarket bubs can be bought anywhere.  Standard 35W bulbs can be found @ Canadian Tire (In the Bulb section)  If you want larger wattage, Lordco can help you out.  I had 55W in mine and they were bright.

I do not think 100W bulbs are a good idea.  I was always under the impression that for that high of a wattage you should have a metal reflector and the face should be glass.

I had 100W in my Hella's on my Maxima and they worked fine but there were metal case and glass front.
