Looking for something brighter than the stock bulbs. I've heard that some of the new bulbs can cause electrical problems? Any bulbs that might give me better lighting over stock and not cause any problems? Thanks for any info.

I have been using HID for 15 years now. No complaints. Better than the LED in my Rivian, since they keep the lens warm for the snow to melt away.

Here are some ideas based on what I went thru ..
* 9012 bulbs are good replacements to the 9006 stock. Just want to trim off a bit of the plastic Key parts to have them fit in the housing.
* Also, how clear are the lenses on the housing? I replaced the entire housings with some units I got off Amazon and the fit was perfect. Just has to adjust height via the adjuster in center at top once installed
* I also go with the Sylvania Silver Star series lights. Or the equivalent Phillips brand They cost a bit more but do put out more light.
