Default Headlights

Hi guys,

I'm looking to get a new set of headlights that aren't sealed so I can put some brighter bulbs in... My current ones are pretty average...

Has anyone done this with a non sealed unit before? Or do you buy new sealed units with better bulbs in them?

I've done a bit of research but not sure if I'm on the right track.. any suggestions -

Hella and Narva both do a quartz halogen conversion 7" round lights that take a H4 globe (from memory), with or without parking lights. Also it is worth looking at upgrading the wiring and relays too to minimise resistance.
