If you already have relays then I think upgrading to a 55/60 or 55/65 etc bulb will give you a noticable increase in lighting over the regular halogen.
You could try that Hella setup. I have heard good things about it from other people.

Mine came from reenmachine.com with the relays i did have to cut the headlight bowl a tiny bit to get them to fit good.Look under images on this http://www.reenmachine.com/shop/prod...6&cat=0&page=1 you will see how much you have to cut.

The H4s are not DOT approved. The Hella H4 housings say 'off-road only' so in some states you may not pass inspection (or so I have read). The best bet might be to buy the HB-2 lights and put H4 bulbs in them if you want them brighter (the H4 bulbs fit the housings).

Apparently the Xenon H4s are high wattage (100/80) and are not DOT approved BUT the Halogen H4s are. I wonder why the Xenon H4 is so much higher power than the Halogen version but the Xenon H1 (high beam) is the same as the Halogen version.

i bought the xenons and took out the xenon bulbs and replaced them with H4 HID's and they are great, the xenons need you to upgrade the wiring harness so you wont get their true potential until you do that. the HID comes with ballasts and an harness that draws directly from the battery
