The extra driving lights, is that what you are talking about? You can get an LED but it won't be nearly as bright. You might be able to find an HID kit to put in there but since the driving lights only come on with the high beams then they will not be used effectively. They take a while to warm up and repeatedly flicking them on and off isn't the best for them. Plus the additional glare will be horrible, only for use with no other cars around.

The standard size bulb for the additional driving lights or "rally lights" is the H3 55w.

Here is a picture of it:

We also carry the Ziza filament bulbs. Direct replacement.
