Does anyone know of a good 9005 HID look-alike bulb?

I already have a good pair of 9006 bulbs from HOEN that look like HID, but I'm having a hell of a time finding a 9005 equivalent.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!!

Ha!

I actually found a decent 9005 bulb that will do the trick. I will try to post a picture of it tonight (both in DRL and high-beam modes), but here is the one I chose (Excelite - Xenon Plasma Super White, 65 watts):

At $11.99, it's a smoking deal and the lights look great. The DRL's still run yellow, but they do have a bluish-tint...almost like someone was running a 150 watt bulb under low power (you expect it, basically).

With the brights on, though, the coloring is awesome.

You know, that's all right.

I also found out that Hoen makes one that's pretty good too (and would probably match the 9006's that I already have from Hoen) -- http://www.hoen-usa.com/plus.html.

The picture is included here. To reiterate - my 9006 (low-beams) are Hoen's and the 9005 (high-beams) are mentioned in my previous post. I apologize for the quality of this photo, but the light does actually look bluish in person (my digital camera tends to run to mommy in low light situtations). It looks awesome and at $11.99 you can't go wrong. I would venture to say that it's almost as bright as a Silverstar Ultra, but it looks even better with the hint of blue.

I have also taken pictures of the LED dome lights that I installed from autoillumination.com. If anyone is interested, I can provide recommendations along these lines. (Again, apologies for the quality of the image, especially the grainy one).
