Recommendation for Head light bulbs.

I did a search and pretty much came up empty handed on this topic. (Maybe I just use the right key words.) But I am looking to replace the headlight bulbs in the Mini. They seem very dim and they don't "reach" very far unless on high beam.

Any recommendations are appreciated.

Thanks.

I just ordered Oshram Cibi HID bulbs from the RetrofitSource last Friday, regular price $200 on sale $160.

I'd be curious to hear if they are brighter. Mine has the stock headlights (not the bi-xenon), and they're definitely not great. I keep the foglights on all the time just to get more light output on the road.

I changed my stock bulb to these. Bought them at Autozone. Way brighter. Bluish light.
