9008 Bulbs?

I went to replace my headlight bulbs with some PIAA's yesterday and come across a 9008 bulb? Never seen one before in my life. Is ther a modification that can be done to change this to 9007, or a 9006. And same with the foglamps, 9145 bulb, not very common.
All input is greatly appreciated as per usual.

The pre 2004 9007 bulb will not work with the new body style trucks.

Some companys make a up grade for 9008 bulbs etc sylvania silver stars,
and silver star ultras

Sylvania Silverstar headlights are # H13, Ultra's are not yet available (they're just a longer lasting SilverStar). Sylvania Fog/Driving Lights are # 9140. Get them at Advance Auto Parts or Pep Boys.

Pep Boys only has the H13 extra vision, not the silverstars and of yet, they are not even listed in their computers yet, do no know when we will get them.

The bulb is becoming more popular now, only because several manufacturers are now using them (since 04) Never had any luck with any PIAA replacment bulbs (always burning out very quickly and not as good a light as they claim). Anyway, all reports I have read on higher output bulbs for the H13s results in overheating and melted plastic (too small of terminals apperantly). I hear Daniel stern lighting is a very good place to get help (danielsternlighting.com) or check out rallylight.com
