HELP: Headlights suck
These stock headlights are about worthless. The PIAA driving lights put out more light. What is the best way to get better lighting? T84's with HID or just T84 and Xenon lamps? Thanks for your help. David

Change your light bulbs to Sylvainia Silver Stars. I got mine at Advanced. Autozone also carries them. They give a much whiter and cleaner light. I really like mine.
They are not HID's but sure do improve the drive at night.

I went with the T84 lenses and 90/100 watt bulbs....also added heavier wiring to supply the extra current needed. Total cost was under $300 and it was the best mod I have done! I can actually see what I'm about to hit 
Do a search on the T84s you should find alot of discussion about them. If you decide to go this way I have instructions with pics that I could email you.
Good luck
