well i know the color is white, wondering if they use the same h8 type bulb or led that we can use on older models.

I don't think they're using any type of bulb. They probably just have LEDs directly on the ends of the rings to shine directly into it (like for the tail light bars), instead of trying to make an LED bulb with a halogen base like the old angel eye system.
