Ways to upgrade headlights on my 02 Taco

Well, from what I have gained... my Taco uses H4 bulbs in the headlights. What have people done to upgrade the headlights?

Maybe a wire harness / relay and certainly brighter bulbs?

What H4 bulbs do you guys suggest?

you can put HID in there but they will set you back a good bit, plus you would have to fab it, to make it fit.

Or just use a set of off road bulbs, that burn brighter

If I were to upgrade my H4 bulbs to the 90/100W, would the stock wires of my Tacoma hold up or would I need an upgrade wire harness/relay to handle the higher wattage?

dx-r,

What wattage H4 bulbs are your street glow H4 bulbs? I have heard terrible things about street glow. The only good thing I have heard is there underbody neon kits.

stay away from street glow, not worth the time to put them in. As for the cost don't know had a set given to me. Can't think of the name of ones in my 6, they were bright, set be back 40$cnd

As for the H4 should be fine with your stock wire

Your running 100/90W H4 Bulbs on the stock wiring or do you have an upgraded wire harness / relay?
