The base of the bulb obviously determines where it can fit and for most home fixture cases determines the voltage (Unfortunately there are many speciality bulbs where the base can fit different voltage situations and you have to be more careful). Light fixtures are rated for a maximum wattage. Bulbs have both a wattage and voltage rating. So if the halogen fits the base, is the same voltage and the fixture is rated for 45 watts or better, then you are good to go.

Where can you find your after market hid bulb?

If you're smart, you don't. "HID kits" are widely available, but they are (all) illegal and dangerous. The only legitimate/safe/legal HID conversion is to install complete HID headlamp assemblies designed, built, tested, and certified as such. Halogen headlamps must use halogen bulbs. If your headlamps have already had an "HID kit" installed, remove it and put the correct bulbs back in.

How many lumens in a 40 watt hallogen?

That will vary on the manufacture and quality of the bulb. There is no set amount of lumens for a 40 watt halogen or any kind of bulb for that matter. To find out the lumen output you need to look at the box it came in as it should be stated. If you don't have the box it may be tricky to find out. You will have to see if you can find the manufacture somewhere on the bulb then google it and check the specs. It's probably safe to say its going to be around 500 lumens on average.
