Default TA headlights

My headlights are terrible, both low and high beams. I do alot of driving out in the country with no street lights and lots of deer and other wildlife. I need to fix this before I ram a deer. What options do I have?

http://www.rallylights.com/hella/165mm_lo.asp is the right link mabey i should't be posting that link because they are not a sponser. I thought it was put in right. If that is the case i feel i should still be able to post the link because none of our sponsers offers lights for the Lt1 birds, and their are not many resourses out their for us. I recieved my lights withen 2 days of me ordering they are a good company to deal with.

I got sealed beams with xenon bulbs from eurolights.com and I ******* love them. they dont have the lt1 kit listed on their site but if you email them asking about it they will send you all the details and a link that you can order the lights from.

I like the idea of more lighting, but $150 for lights shipped is a little tough to swallow.

I got that setup not too long ago and its a big improvement. I'm looking to go HID sometime soon if I can figure everything out. Here is a link with some pics.

The night shots with the lights on isnt a good representation of the light output. It does not glare like that. I am going to snap some better pics soon. Make sure you extend the plug adapter wiring before the install.

I only payed $96 shipped and that was with extra baulbs the 80/100. Part Number HL21100C, I am already thinking about better baulbs tho. I do love my lights it was only a minor mod to make them work.

I just put these on my car yesterday: http://eurolamps.com/eurolamps/s10_headlights.htm
I won't know how they are until tonight but they look great so far! The kit was 70 bucks.

Does that kit you purchased include everything and was both high/low beams?

Its an H4 lamp and yes it does have the Hi/low beam. I purchased the part number with the premium hella 100/80 lamps and I am impressed with the color and light output. I will soon be seeing how they work out with HID's. I will keep everyone posted on how it comes out. I should also be retaining my hi/low beams with the HID's as well.
