better headlights? 94 945T 900

Hello, I'd like to get better headlights for my car but I don't know where to start? Should I get brighter bulbs? or should I look for a place that sells E-Code headlights? Any advice would be recommended, thanks!

smart suggestion 900

John Sargent once suggested to first start by adding relays to supply the head light bulbs with strait power from the battery. Voltage will increase to the bulbs due to less resistance seen with the length and size of the original wire.
Makes so much sense, thanks John.

An inexpensive start is a set of Sylvania Xtravision bulbs ($18 at Walmart) which are brighter.

you should try the new osram/sylvania silverstar bulbs... they claim that these are their whitest, brightest bulbs. i have no experience with them, but if they are anything like the phillips vision plus bulbs on my mr2, i think you'll be very happy, as they are sgnificantly brighter than stock.

here is a link:
