Best and most expensive is buy upgrade kit from most parts stores and some sponsers of this site.

Second choice is search this forum and tech folders for "BriteBox".

The choice for those of us who are thrifty is found in tech folders and at S&S Diversified's web site. Search "foglight fix" that shows a 30 minute job that lets fog lights be on with high beams.

PIAA makes the best bulbs if you can afford them. Silverstar is better than stock. 4 KC Daylighters...problem solved I would go with adding driving lights before any other kit myself. That's my next purchase, just need to figure out how I want to mount them.

your best option is to do a hid conversion kit, just make sure you do it the proper way.

OK I checked mine on the fender side of ea. headlight at the back of the light housing half way down the housing is a screw that takes a T-20 driver. or you can use a metric socket not sure the size. Turning this screw will move the headlight beam up and down.
On the inner side of the light about level with the top of the light housing is the same size and type of screw turning this one will move the headlight beam left to right.
