Default Dual Bulb Halogen Headlamp HELP???

I have this product kit number 67864-04A, it says the product is a dual bulb
55w low and 65W high beam kit. I took the bulbs out today to replace them with silverstar ultra bulbs. The low beam is the H11 55W in the bulb.

What was in the high beam is an H8 12Volvt 35W bulb. The description says it's supposed to be 65W. Okay, so I look at the replacement part number for the high beam and it says: 68096-04

What is the deal? Is it a 35W bulb (that is in the light) or is it supposed to be a 65W as the description for high beam says:

What h8 silverstar will fit this without causing issues?

Thanks,
Joe

Look HERE.

It appears from the part number you listed that you have the old one.

Buy PIAA Super Whites In the 35W=85w and the 55w=110w. No more draw, just a lot more light,and you won't exceed the rating for the light bucket.

I replaced the headlight and the spots with the truc-lite LED and the difference is amazing! So much brighter and farther reaching than the dual bulb! I originally had just the LED head light but that showed how DIM and YELLOW the spots were. Once I put the LED in the spots, WOW.
