They are slightly blue.  I don't know the exact part number.  The 
ballasts are the Philips ballast.

It used to be that you could buy a whole taillight assembly for $30, and 
get the HID parts.  The sellers are too smart for that now and sell them 
separately, but it's still a lot cheaper than buying new.
