Where can I buy one? preferably from Amazon.

I already tried SYLVANIA and Philips 9005, they all come with one guide in the middle, instead of two guide like the old one.
And most 9005 on Amazon only have one guide in the middle. Some of the LED might work by having no guide, but I am concerned that it might be burned quickly since it is on all the time.
Sorry, I must have missed something.

According to the reference, it should be using 9006 low beam, but for some reason My 2004 Land cruiser low beam is using 9005 bulb.
 
 
Also the size of the O ring is different for our low and high beams. I use the high beam bulb in the low beam as it is 65W by installing a larger (thicker) O ring and cutting those tiny tabs on the bulb to accomodate the wire plug. Now the low beam is much brighter. Oh.. the thread is posted post-3!
 
9005 is a high beam bulb, 9006 is low beam. Unless your PO modified the truck side connector, it shouldn't fit. It's more common (and illegal and dangerous and rude to other drivers) to cut the tabs in the bulb to fit vs. the harness.
