Better Bulbs for Headlights?
One of the headlight bulbs burned out tonight, and as standard operating procedure, it's time to upgrade. My question is what lights are going to be a good upgrade? I'd like brighter lights, but not so bright the lenses get melted. And I'm not into colored lights, white is fine for me.
What do you use, and what do you think about it? Let me know.

WalMart. GE High output. Cheap, bright, no gimmicks, no high wattage to damage your wiring, DOT approved highway legal, long life.
Sylvania makes a similar product.
Sylvania also makes their "SilverStar" bulbs. Slightly tinted blue, crisp light, shorter life. (you gotta pay the piper).
If you really want to go nuts, Sylvania also offers their Xenarc line of HID lamps, all highway legal plug and play.

OK This one is still running:

It's a set of hollow polycarbonate fake 6054 headlight bulbs the same shape as the OE glass ones for '79-86 trucks and then some H4 bulbs that go in the back like '87-up. The ones that come with them have a light blue filter that gives them an HID look, but at $35+$15sh, you can afford to toss those if you don't like them and get plain H4s from WM or anywhere. I like the idea and it's the best price I've found, so I'm gonna buy them.
