Best replacement light bulbs?

[willbill92]

What are the best replacement bulbs for a stock headlight assembly. I am noticing that my lights are really dim these days.

Thanks in advance.

There's a whole thread on the subject:

Modded 9011 and 9012 bulbs seem to be the ticket.

I always liked the stock bulbs.

did have a socket smoke, and have to replace (splice in) the socket. this is pretty common

if they have recently become dim, you could look closely at the lense, and check the voltage.

brighter bulbs will burn out faster, and higher wattage ones will be more inclined to burn the socket.
