Driving lights are the inner, square ones, with a single wattage bulb.  If
you buy the 100W bulb from your FLAPS, it will have a tab on it that will
prevent installation.  The tab is easily removed with sidecutters.  But
remember that you need relays before using higher wattage bulbs.  Also
remember that the driving lights only come on with the high beams, so they
won't help your low beam situation.
