Lots of people are disappointed in the low beams, but this is a first for
me... hearing someone that wants brighter high beams....

Anyway... don't just but in higher wattage bulbs... you'll likely burn up
your headlight switch... you'll need to put in larger wires, relays, and
fuses from the battery to the headlights... then higher wattage bulbs.
