There  is one more cheap way for a few bucks more.  Upgrade the main bulbs to
9004  Hella Halogen 100/80w and the inner bulbs to Hella Halogen 100w.  You
do  need to install the relay kit and change the fuse on the high beam circuit
to  15A.  See my Vanagon Headlamp Relay Upgrade webpage for complete  details.
