Lighting Upgrade?

Hey all,

My friend has a MY1990 Camry DX... a big gripe about it is the subpar lighting.... The headlights need alignment.. however other than that the beam pattern is just horrible... :

Does anyone here run higher-wattage bulbs? I am not interested in the blue/white 9004's.. just brighter bulbs. Did you have to use a relay or did you just use the current wiring?

Also, since these are US-spec headlights... do they have Euro spec headlights (LHD headlights with the E-Code beam pattern) for this car?

Try a set of yellow fog lights... they do help in terms of looking at street signs and stuff...

Not quite sure.

However, it is a good idea to use e-code lenses for your car as long as it's LHD. The beam pattern is a bit superior in terms of foreground lighting, and you don't lose out on much in the background either.
