These are the bulbs Dave Hanlon mentioned and I have purchased,

Here are 2 photos with the warm white on the right. I have not driven with them yet, but
thought you might like to see the comparison.

The difference is much more noticeable in person.

Wonder which pair the other driver coming towards me would like to see?

David, I don't think what the other drivers want to see is as important as what they're GOING to see. After a half a$$ attempt of aiming, I don't think they intrude into the other lane that much. (I only took one short trip on the road so far)
Whichever you can see better with would be my choice. I am happy with the white ones.

If you're running a timer/coils, do you see a flicker at idle ?
I do, but have a distributor and a standard 6V with a cut-out...
