You could always try Sylvania silverstars. If you wanna go with HIDs here is a website I got from another MF'er. http://www.vvme.com

55w will be your brightest. 5000k - 6000k will be your best temperature range for most light output.

I think that 6000k is the color of the headlight, or how blue it looks. Most people choose either 6000k or 8000k. As long as you get the 55w kit it should be very bright.

I guess I should mention that I don't have HIDs, but I am planing on buying a 55w kit from that website I posted earlier.
