Default GTO Headlights and bulbs

I've got a 04 GTO and I want to put some brighter bulbs in, what would be brighter and what bulbs would be more white than stock? And what headlight options are there for the GTO and what looks good on it?

You can easily convert the H11 low beam socket to hold a H9 bulb. If your car had a low beam reflector, this would be a bad idea due to glare, but because your car has low beam projectors, this should work out fine and you'll get a noticeable increase in output. If its any consolation, my Hella 90mm projectors came originally fitted with H9 bulbs (I have a 4300K HID kit now).

I found a thread on it:

You can get H9 bulbs at any auto parts store.
(stick with clear, uncoated, bulbs)

(Scroll down to H11 for info and comparison to H9.)
