You can either upgrade to xenon headlamp assemblies from a later model,
or install European headlamp assemblies which have glass lenses, larger
chromed reflector and house H4 bulbs.  Then install 80w/100w H4 bulbs
and your light output will increase immensily.

I have the stock bulbs (replaced a couple of years ago).  But compared
to 
my newer vehicles, the light output is anemic. Are there any after
market 
replacements that would help to increase the brightness.  I am using
9004 
bulbs which claim to be 100 Watts.
