Guys, I am looking for something a little brighter than stock. I am not looking to do a hid mod or anything like that. If possible just a simple switch of bulbs that are odor approved. Any leads???

The easiest is either a high quality H11 bulb or modify an H9 bulb to get an extra 15 or so watts (which is cheaper). I also found that a better fog light helps. Lastly do a quick verification of the headlight calibration. It might be that they are aimed a little too high (was for me).

Interesting you mention this. I think mine are too high as well (haven't touched them...factory settings). I get people flashing me nearly every day with my low beams on.

I had to adjust mine also. I did the H9 upgrade as well and adjusted them down a few MM.

Best cheap mod yet :)
