My suggestion is to get an H4 conversion set. I paid $60 for mine off Ebay, and it's a huge improvement over stock. Be careful when you buy, though, some H4 housings will only allow 55-60W bulbs.

Do a search of the forum using "Dan Stern" as the subject. He sells H4 conversions that will allow the use for any H4 bulb, but they are expensive.

There are HID kits that use H4 bulbs, so couldn't you use this in conjuction with the H4 conversion kit?
