Better Lighting ?

I know my headlights suck, they dont throw out as much light as I know I need. Besides the $700 PITA conversion has anyone made any improvements to them ?
Almost makes me think the front end swap off of a LS1 camaro would be worth it.

You know sometimes what the ricers do is a good thing.
I put in some of them bright white bulbs in my headlight housing.
Yes you have to do some modification to put these in but it is worth it. The old ones are sealed with some white gunk but I use clear silicone to seal the new bulbs into the housing and let them sit overnite.
Big difference.
Cheaper too.

Cheapest Way:

- 130w bulbs siliconed into the stock housings.
($14 a pair)

- High wattage wiring harness
(About $25)

I did a full set for a friend of mine tonight.. it took less than 30 minutes
